Welcome to Salt of the Earth. This is a Christian podcast built around one verse, Matthew 5:13, where Jesus tells a crowd of ordinary people, you are the salt of the earth. Not try to be. Not aim to be. He says it like a fact.
Back then, salt was valuable. It preserved food before there were refrigerators, it brought out flavor, and it was even used as pay. That is actually where the word salary comes from. Salt worked quietly and changed everything around it just by being there.
But salt can also lose its flavor. It can still look like salt while the substance is gone. That is what this show is about: how we live as salt, and how we get our flavor back when we feel like we have lost it.
This one is for believers, and for anyone who feels like they have lost their salt and want it back. We will have honest conversations, and I cannot wait for you to meet the guests we are bringing in. So stay salty, my friends.
This is Salt of the Earth.
