This three-week lesson explores what it truly means to be the "Salt of the Earth" - a calling that invites us to
examine our purpose, our influence, and how we live faithfully in relationship
with God. Salt, in Biblical times, was incredibly valuable. It preserved food,
healed wounds, acted as payment, and as a covenant of friendship. Jesus knew
this, and in Matthew 5:13-16, uses salt to describe the role of His followers.
Just as salt prevents decay and brings taste to blandness, we are called to
preserve spiritual truth and bring depth, value, and hope to a world that often
lacks it. Through Scripture and practical reflection, we will unpack how
being "salt" shapes our identity as believers and our impact on the
world around us.
We encourage you to put together a lesson
that works best with your group's needs (ages, energy levels, one room/multi
room, etc.) Reach out if you have any questions or need any guidance.
