New Life Downtown

What does it mean to be salt and light in this world? As the series on the Sermon on the Mount continues, Pastor Glenn Packiam explains how Jesus once again deals with our identity before addressing our behavior. Because He is salt and light, we--together as the people of God--have become a preserving presence and a visible witness in the world. We are challenged not to withdraw from the world but to work in it, cultivating the "soil" around us, fueled by the love of Christ, for the sake of the world and for the glory of God.
