As summer winds down and routines return, they explore how consistency and regular rhythms can be spiritually enriching, even when life feels monotonous. Discover the importance of grounding yourself in daily practices, how God shows up in the ordinary, and why these times are essential for spiritual growth. Join the conversation and learn how to live fully, even in the 'ordinary' days.

In this episode of the Light and Life podcast, Pastor Tim returns to discuss the concept of being "in the world, but not of the world." Drawing from the current sermon series at First Pres, "Salt," Tim and Liza explore what it means to live out our faith authentically in a world that often challenges Christian values. They delve into the pressures of conforming to societal norms, the importance of maintaining integrity, and how being "salt" can preserve, enhance, and create a thirst for goodness in the world. This episode encourages listeners to embrace their identity in Christ and to be a distinctive, positive influence in their communities.
