Salt and Light | Sermon on the Mount | Aaron Pennington - Lead Pastor

In this message from our Sermon on the Mount series, Aaron Pennington teaches through Matthew 5:13–16, where Jesus calls His followers the salt of the earth and the light of the world.Jesus is not offering a suggestion. He is giving identity and purpose.Salt preserves what is good and pushes back decay. Light exposes darkness and points people toward hope. In a world marked by confusion, compromise, and spiritual drift, Jesus calls His people to live differently and visibly for the Kingdom of God.In this sermon, Pastor Aaron explores: • What Jesus meant when He said, “You are the salt of the earth” • Why followers of Jesus are called to preserve truth and resist spiritual decay • How living as salt and light requires intentional faith, not passive belief • What it looks like to live out your faith at work, at home, and in your community • Why every follower of Jesus is called into ministry, not just pastorsThis message challenges us to stop compartmentalizing our faith and instead live with clarity, courage, and conviction in every area of life. Our faith was never meant to be hidden. It was meant to shine.If you are searching for purpose, wrestling with culture, or wondering how to live out your faith in everyday life, this message is for you.📍 Trace Church4330 Mark Dabling BlvdColorado Springs, COService Times8:15a | 10:00a | 11:45a | 5:00p
