Epiphany 5
Matthew 5.13-20Context
This week we continue our series on the theme of wisdom and foolishness, focusing for the next four weeks on the ethical teachings of Jesus in Matthew 5 and 6, often referred to as the Sermon on the Mount.
Common thread: Wise or foolish life? (Matthew 5.13-20)
Today we explore the theme of wise or foolish witness through the metaphor of salt.
An alternative thread for adults, The Spirit of understanding, is based on 1 Corinthians 2.1-12,(13-16).
These resources were first published in Issue 51 January/February 2011.
