Matthew 5:13-16

It’s no secret, we live in stressful times. More than ever, we need to be resilient so that we can do what God has called us to do. In this message, Pastor Rick shares the secrets of being resilient so you can fulfill your purpose and live with less stress.When you know where you’re headed and you focus in that direction, you’re less likely to be distracted by less important things. Jesus lived that way and was a master of concentration. In this message, Pastor Rick shares how you can live a selective life like Jesus so you can live for God’s kingdom and do what pleases the Father.

The influence of what we are is deeper than what we do. We are called to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world in a decaying dark environment.

Salt preserves, enhances flavor, and makes people thirsty. Jesus used that metaphor to describe our influence as His followers. In this message, Jonathan Evans challenges us to consider whether we’re truly making a difference in the world or just blending into it.

Today pastor Jeff resumes our study of the Sermon on the Mount.  Today we’re learning what we’re to be like in these last days.  Jesus summed it up perfectly… we’re to be both salt and light.  Salt is what we are… we cause a thirst.  Light is what we do… we shine!  

It’s one of the most frequently asked questions, “What is God’s will for my life?”  We see Jesus answer that question in His Sermon on the Mount by telling us to be Salt and Light in the world.  Today we’ll be discussing God’s call for each of us and part of that involves turning the light on wherever we may be.  

Learning from Christ how to be influential and have a positive impact on the people with whom we’re called to share the good news; understanding that evangelism may sometimes take us outside of our comfort zones; based on Matthew 5:13-16 and other passages.
