What it means to be salt and light

Live in the Light
About this episode

As genuine followers of Christ, we are called to be salt and light in the world, but what does this mean? Just as salt was used as a preservative in Jesus' time, Christians are also to live lives that preserve morality and slow the spiritual decay we see in the current culture of this world. We also are to be light in this world, shining it through good works so that Christ receives the glory. In today's message, Pastor Robbie examines and exposits this important call on the life of th Christ-follower.
