SERMON NOTES Shannon Huetter, Lead Pastor SALT AND LIGHT Matthew 5:13-16 April 26, 2020 BIG IDEA:​ W ​ e were meant to be ​influencers​ in our culture to bring glory to ​God​. SALT (Verse 13) You are the salt of the earth because... ● You are v ​ aluable​. ● You have a p ​ reserving​ influence. ● You add f​ lavor​ to this world. LIGHT (Verses 14-16) You are the light of the world because... ● You are light-receivers and l​ ight-givers​. ● You are to i​ lluminate​ and ​expose​ what is there. ● You help g ​ uide​ people in the darkness. QUESTIONS TO PONDER ● What does it mean to be the salt and light in today’s society? ● What are some of the darkest areas of society? How can Christians be the salt and light in these areas? ● Read 1 Corinthians 9:20-23. What value is there in trying to understand a non-believers point of view? How can this help strengthen your ability to witness to them?
