Remember Godspell? Here are some of the words from one of the songs: You are the light of the world! You are the light of the world! But if that light is under a bushel, It's lost something kind of crucial You've got to stay bright to be the light of the world You are the salt of the earth You are the salt of the earth But if that salt has lost it's flavor It ain't got much in its favor You can't have that fault and be the salt of the earth! You are the light of the world You are the light of the world But the tallest candlestick Ain't much good without a wick You've got to live right to be the light of the world. Jesus’ words from the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5:1-20) are known in the culture and in the church. Salt and light are images easily understood in Jesus’ time and our own. The challenge is to figure out the ways we can be salt and light, so on Sunday we will consider how to live the “tasty, lit-up life!” The Sanctuary Choir and Morgan provide music; Dave is liturgist; JJ and Ziggy are "hiding under a bushel" and then lead the children in "this little light of mine."
