OUT OF THE SALT SHAKER
Scott Young.com ~ Pastor of Hope
Influence – Week 1
Matthew 5:13 - You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

2. We Can Add Value To Others

3. We Can Promote Thirst
Matthew 5:16 - In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.
4. We Can Add Flavor
