Salt & Light
“Salt & Light”
Sermon by The Rev. Brad Landry
February 5, 2023
Jesus tells his disciples you are the salt of the earth. Imagine a well seasoned steak or salted popcorn or those cookie fix cookies that have just the right amount of salt on them for that perfectly sweet taste. The world needs your seasoning, and in a time that seems very hazy, Jesus reminds us we are the light of the world.. and the world needs your light. I have discovered that at All Saints we are not plain vanilla, our feasts are tasty and our light is bright, and for that I say thanks be to God.
