Programming Note: This week, we're replaying one of our favorite episodes from the past. We'll be back next week with a brand new episode.

Embrace Your Role as Salt and Light

This week we look at what it means to be a change maker in the world and the people around you, from a Biblical perspective. In our Finding Jesus segment, we deal with the cynicism that says, “what’s the use, it won’t make a difference” and the suffering that comes from the Lord. Then in today’s Scripture du Jour (1 Corinthians 16), we consider what it means to “act like a man” and Bryan makes some observations about the weekly collection. And then we go from a Bryan Wilson song to the cross to the “man in the mirror” — as we look for ways to be a positive influence.

The Big Idea: We can’t influence the world if we shut ourselves off from it.

Weekly Challenge: Listen and find empathy for others around you this week.
