Jesus reveals that real, lasting change doesn’t come through outrage or withdrawal but through ordinary people living as salt and light… quietly embodying his Kingdom in everyday life.
Main Ideas:
We live in a culture of polarization and confusion.
In the Kingdom of Heaven, identity comes before activity.
When we follow Jesus, our lives shine the truth of who God is and what he is doing.
Kingdom People are God’s gift to the world.
Kingdom people exist to live lives that show who God really is.
Small light still pushes back darkness.
When we remember who we are in Jesus, the world around us begins to change.
Invitation:
Refuse to forget who you are.
This week, begin your days by declaring, ‘I am salt. I am light. Not because I’m trying harder, but because I belong to Jesus.’
Then intentionally live it out.
