Becoming SALT Devotional - June 30

Called to Be SALT

Read: Matthew 5

Key Verse: Matthew 5:13

Inductive Questions:

• What does it mean that Jesus calls us the salt of the earth? (Consider watching the scene from The Chosen, Season 1, Episode 7, where Jesus explains this metaphor to Matthew. This visual illustration brings depth to the power and purpose of salt in Jesus’ teaching.)
• In what ways does salt influence its environment? (Examples: Salt brings out flavor in food, preserves meat from decay, melts ice on roads, and cleanses wounds. How do these reflect your impact as a follower of Jesus?)
• How can you live out this identity in your home and community today? Are there any neighbors who might need to taste Jesus' flavor, benefit from His preserving truth, or be cleansed by His grace through your witness?

Prayer: Lord, help me to bring Your flavor and preservation to a world in need. Show me those around me who need Your touch—through love, truth, and grace. Keep me salty for Your kingdom.

Reflection: Today, I will bring the salt of Christ to ___________ by ___________. I humbly pray in Jesus' name, Amen.
