We Are A City On A Hill

Pastor Jason’s message yesterday centered on the call for believers to live as the salt of the earth and the light of the world, drawing from Matthew 5:13–16. He emphasized that as salt, Christians are called to bring flavor, preserve goodness, and cleanse through their influence, warning against losing their effectiveness by conforming to worldly patterns (1 Corinthians 15:33, Ephesians 5:3-4). As light, believers are to dispel darkness, provide direction, and reveal God’s beauty, echoing John 1:5 and Ephesians 5:8. He challenged the church to be visible, radiant, and spiritually renewed, reminding them that their love and unity testify to God’s truth (John 13:35, 17:21). The message reinforced the 2025 theme, "Jesus in My City," encouraging believers to seek God’s kingdom above all else (Matthew 6:33) and boldly live out their faith in a way that glorifies God and transforms their communities.
