This week we look at the statement Jesus made just after the beatitudes, “You are the salt of the earth.” We’ll learn how Jesus is giving us a much more expansive identity by using salt. He’s saying, “God’s plan is to use his followers to protect the world from decay and corruption, to purify it and to bring out the God flavors of this world.”

Next steps

I will live as the salt of the earth.

I will continue to pray, “God, use me” until he shows me how he wants me to make a difference in this world.

I will die to this culture and be fully available to be used by God.
