Reflection Questions:
1. What evidence do you see in our culture that followers of Jesus are have not been the salt and light he tells us we are?

2. How do you need to grow in becoming salt and light in the areas of the culture where Jesus has you right now?

3. On a scale of 1-10, how comfortable are you in talking with nonbelievers about faith? Explain. What hinders you from having spiritual conversations with people? Where do you need help?

4. Why is learning to listen to people so important in helping them come to know and follow Jesus? What is the cost of not listening and understanding them? How does being listened to and understood make a person feel known and loved?

5. What are some questions we can ask that help us understand where a person is at on their spiritual journey?

6. What are some of examples in the life of Jesus where we see him being CONTRASTED (different) and CONNECTED to people? Why do WE need both of these qualities to be salt and light to the world? Describe what a person would be like with one or the other but not both. Which one do you need to grow in the most? Explain.

7. Who are some people (or one person) in your life right or on your heart to whom you could be salt and light right now? What step could you take to initiate with them? INVEST and INVITE (bring them to Journey with you)?
