Be Thou Salty, O Christian Man

Episode 62 - Be Thou Salty, O Christian Man

After Christ calls his followers "salt of the earth", he warns against the loss of said saltiness, saying that the flavorless are only good for being "thrown out and trampled underfoot."  Regardless of how one might describe salt--pungent, preservative, potent--it would, based on Christ's words, seem to be a quality critical to the life of a Christian and to that of the Christian Church. 

Chad cooks up a unique recipe in this savory meal of an episode, while Ben minces the ingredients as the sharp-edged sous chef.  The two co-hosts simmer on what it should mean to be a Salty Christian Man.  Is the Christian church today as salty as it ought to be?  What are some examples of men being salty in world?  How can men restore the full flavor of the gospel right in the places where they're planted?
