Salty Faith
Manage episode 252947670 series 2421920
The great Christians of old can seem like giants of faith. Yet, Jesus shows us that his most faithful followers may actually be the ones you don't notice. In his sermon today, Fr. Stephen reveals how Jesus' disciples are called to be like salt and light. Neither of these draw attention to themselves, but instead help bring out the best in the world around them.
Scripture Reference: Matthew 5:13-20
Preached on the 5th Sunday after Epiphany, February 9, 2020 by Rev. Stephen Silverthorne
