The Salt Company | Cedar Rapids (Audio)

Riley and Jacob dive into the exclusivity of the Gospel in that it is only through the one man, Jesus Christ, that you can be reconciled to God. Yet, this is incredibly good news when we realize that there IS A WAY! What does this mean for us today, and how do we live this out as a college ministry? All that and more, on this weeks edition of Salt Company, beyond the message. Speaker:

Riley Bee takes on the topic of salvation being found in just one place. The name and Gospel of Jesus Christ. Could it be that there is really only one way for people to be reconciled to God? What happens to those who don't hear? How do we, as Christians, respond to the necessity of Christ being proclaimed in order for people to be saved? Speaker: Riley Bee

Danny and Jacob dig further into the importance of God's design of sexuality for His people. We live in a sexualized culture, and that has bled into the church. How do we see our sexuality as God sees it? As a way to glorify Him and more deeply enjoy His ways? Listen in for that an more on this weeks episode of Salt Company - Beyond the Message Speaker:

Jordan Howell returns to Salt Company in Cedar Rapids to address a question that our culture is wildly confused and divided by. Why does God care about my sexuality? Jordan dives into the origin of mankind, God's design and purpose for us, and how we are to live in light of God's design for His glory. Speaker:

Kyle and Jacob dig deeper into the meaning and experience of true freedom for the Christian. What is the beauty behind a Christian not just casting off restraints, but embracing the right ones? What is the point, and how do restraints coincide with freedom? Speaker:

Kyle Kelley continues the "Can I Ask That?" series talking about the tension between living in freedom and being obedient to the commands of God. What really is freedom? Where do we find it? Kyle uses Romans chapter 6 to shed light on a topic that lies at the heart of the Christian. Speaker: Kyle Kelley

Danny and Jacob break down Danny's sermon from the week talking about the relevance of Scripture and the importance of seeing how the Bible today still speaks into all of life. Listen in to hear how the Bible is not only true, but relevant and beautiful for both Danny and Jacob, and how you can start to see it as such alongside them. Speaker: Danny Daugherty and Jacob Abbas

Danny and Jacob dig more deeply into the evidence for God as they open up their summer series "Can I ask that?" Designed to equip and empower students to ask the questions that can go unsaid. Speaker:

The Christian life isn’t about trying harder it’s about fixing your eyes on Jesus. When you see Him clearly as the One who started your faith sustains it and endured the cross for joy you’ll find the strength to endure and a joy far greater than anything you leave behind. Speaker: Danny Daugherty

Welcome back to The Salt Company Beyond the Message podcast, helping you look more like salt and light in everyday life. This week, Caleb Moody joins us to talk about how Veritas Cafe is creating space for discipleship and gospel conversations, plus we dive into endurance in the Christian life and a big listener question on sola scriptura, what it is and why it matters. Resources: How did we get t...

Show moreShow less The Christian life can feel exhausting you keep fighting sin, trying to grow, and still wonder, “Is this even worth it?” This message walks through Hebrews 12 and reminds us that we’re not running a sprint, but a marathon that requires endurance learning to both hold on to Jesus and keep moving forward, trusting that the race is hard but the finish line is worth it. Speaker: Jac...

Kyle and Jacob unpack what it really means to lay aside distractions and sin, wrestle with what “good gifts” actually are, and expose how easily we drift into comfort over Christ. If you’ve felt stuck, distracted, or just going through the motions, this conversation will challenge you to wake up, refocus, and run the race with purpose. Speaker:

You’re not burned out you’ve drifted. Not running from God just slowly forgetting Him. Settling for a distracted, half awake faith while clutching things that are quietly killing your hunger for Him. But the cross wasn’t casual Jesus didn’t bleed so you could coast. It cost everything to save you so why are you giving Him leftovers? Drop the weight. Kill the sin. Wake up. This race isn’t about sta...

In this episode, Jacob and Danny reflect on rhythms that keep our faith alive, from worship and time in creation to the often overlooked practice of fasting. They unpack how these habits train our hearts to hunger for God and help us stay anchored in Him beyond emotional highs. Speaker:

When faith starts to feel like “senioritis,” it’s easy to grow weary, distracted, and tempted to give up. But Hebrews 12 reminds us that we’re not running alone, we’re surrounded by a “great cloud of witnesses,” ordinary people who endured, kept going, and finished the race. This message calls us to keep running with endurance, fixing our eyes on Jesus and remembering that the race is hard and lon...

God’s holiness is a consuming fire it either purifies or it destroys, and the only way to stand before a holy God is to be washed and made clean through Jesus Christ. In this episode of The Salt Company: Beyond the Message we reflect on the holiness of God, why His attributes matter for everyday life, and how knowing Him brings stability, trust, and awe. We also talk about approaching spring break...

God isn’t just holy, He’s holy, holy, holy. In Book of Isaiah 6, we see how encountering God’s holiness exposes our unworthiness but also reveals the cleansing grace of Jesus Christ. When we truly see God for who He is, the only response left is surrender: “Here I am, Lord, send me.” Speaker: Jacob Abbas

Jacob and Danny dive deeper into last night’s sermon, exploring the attribute of God’s all-knowing nature. Speaker:

What do you do when life confronts you with questions you can’t answer? When tragedy strikes, the future feels uncertain, and God’s ways don’t make sense? The gap between what we know and what we wish we knew can leave us anxious, angry, and exhausted. But Scripture offers a stunning truth: peace was never meant to come from knowing everything, it comes from knowing and trusting the all-knowing, a...

On this episode of the Salt Company Beyond the Message podcast, Danny sits down with Jacob to talk about God’s omnipotence and what it means for real life. If God truly has all authority and power, how should that shape the way we pray, fight sin, and share the gospel? Be challenged to trust a bigger God and live with bold, expectant faith. Speaker:

Feel like your faith is stuck in first gear, working hard but going nowhere? This message confronts your small view of God and calls you to trust His omnipotent power for bold evangelism, real victory over sin, and prayers that actually shake things. Stop striving in your own strength and start living like the power of God is real. Speaker: Jacob Abbas

If God is everywhere, why do we live like He’s not watching? This episode confronts our quiet compromises, our spiritual numbness, and the idols we baptize as blessings. Stop settling for a manageable God and learn what it means to actually live before His face. Speaker:

God is not small, distant, or optional. He is fully present everywhere, always. That means there is no hiding from Him, but also no place where His presence cannot fuel your holiness and courage. Through Jesus, Emmanuel, God with us, His presence becomes not your greatest fear, but your greatest strength. Speaker: Danny Daugherty

This week on Salt Company Beyond the Message, Jacob and Kyle tackle God’s sovereignty, predestination, and the tension between human responsibility and divine control. From 1 Samuel 15 to Romans 9, they wrestle with big questions and why not fully understanding God might be the point. Speaker:

What comes to your mind when you think about God? A.W. Tozer said it is the most important thing about you. In this new series on the attributes of God, we are taking the blindfold off, like standing at the base of Mount Everest in awe, to behold the greatness of the God we actually serve, not one shaped by culture or preference. Week one reminds us that God is unchanging. His nature, character, a...
