January 30, 2021: Faithful in Trials and Failure

Sermon on the Mount series message 8

Text: Matthew 5:13

Last week we saw that every follower of Jesus should expect trials and that our response should show Christ to the world around us, to be ‘salt'. Our mission to the world doesn’t stop when life is painful. But what happens when we fail, even walk away under the circumstances? What happens if we lose our saltiness? While flavorless salt might only be good to be trampled by people, behold, God’s steadfast love in Christ means our flavor can be restored.
