First Cary UMC's First Sanctuary Sermon – Rev. Ben Alexander – November 2, 2025
Scripture: Matthew 5:13-16
Along a mountainside in Matthew 5, Jesus offers his most memorable teaching about Red Letter Life on earth. Early on, Jesus speaks to his disciples about being the salt of the earth, and light of the world. On this All Saints Day, may the saints present and past be a living reminder of what it means to live as the salt that “brings out the God-flavors of this earth”, and as the light, which “brings out the God-colors in the world” (Matthew 5, the MSG).
