Salt and Light: Making A Difference Where You Already Are

Ever feel the tension of trying to live a normal life, but not get “colonised” by the values around you? Jesus had words for that. In Matthew 5:13–16, Jesus calls his followers salt and light: people who preserve what’s good, bring God’s flavour into everyday life, and shine in a world that can feel dark. In this sermon, Jerram Watts unpacks what those metaphors meant in Jesus’ day, why “salt of the earth” is more than a nice phrase, and how fear, compromise, or apathy can quietly dim our impact. This message connects to real life: work, study, family pressure, feeling overwhelmed by global problems, and the question, “Where do I even begin?” It lands with two practical starting points: where God has placed you, and what God has given you to serve others right where you are. What would it look like for your life to be salt and light this week?
