Summary
Over the next few weeks, we are going to be looking at what are our core values as a church moving forward. As a church of refuge, our calling is not just to be a shelter, but to be seasoning for bland lives — hope in heavy times, light in long nights. Salt and light aren’t just nice words. They’re our identity. The real question is: are we reflecting that light clearly and sharing that salt freely, or have we started to blend in with the darkness and lost our distinct flavor?
