Mark 8:34-37 I Dan Nemmers I October 1, 2026 You’ve got a plan for your life. But what if God has a different mission for you? To start off our Fall Retreat weekend, Dan Nemmers from Bloomington-Normal, IL dives into God’s mission for us. We all have hopes, dreams, and desires that we want to hold onto. But what does it look like to truly follow Jesus? Dan challenges us to deny ourselves, take up...

John 14:6, 18:29-40 I Nick Harsh I September 24, 2026 You’ve heard it said. But have you ever stopped to ask if it’s true? We’re exposing the lies our world has portrayed as truth and looking at what Scripture actually says. We've all heard the phrase “live your truth,” but what happens when our truth doesn’t line up with reality? Culture tells us truth is subjective, something we can define...

1 John 4 I Derek Jones I September 17, 2026 You’ve heard it said. But have you ever stopped to ask if it’s true? We’re exposing the lies our world has portrayed as truth and looking at what Scripture actually says. Derek unpacked the phrase "love is love", but what do we even mean when we say love? Culture tells us love is affirmation, lust, or whatever we say it is. But Scripture tells...

Ecclesiastes 2:1-11, 12:8,13-14 I RJ Frahm I September 10, 2026 You’ve heard it said. But have you ever stopped to ask if it’s true? We’re exposing the lies our world has portrayed as truth and looking at what Scripture actually says. You only live once, so make the most of it. RJ walks us through the mindset of yolo and reminds us that how we spend this life actually matters. Our lives are short,...

Genesis 1:1, Job, Colossians 1:15-22 I Derek Jones I September 3, 2026 You’ve heard it said. But have you ever stopped to ask if it’s true? We’re exposing the lies our world has portrayed as truth and looking at what Scripture actually says.  Derek unpacked the idea that the reason you don’t feel like you’re enough is because you were never meant to be. The world tells us to look within ourselves,...

Philippians 4:10-23 I Derek Jones I April 30, 2026 As we wrap up the book of Philippians and the semester, we’re left with this question: what if there was a way to live where your life doesn’t fall apart, no matter the circumstance? Paul shows us that kind of life is marked by contentment. Not a fleeting feeling, but a steady, lasting peace that must be learned. The secret isn’t found in what we...

Philippians 4:1-9 I RJ Frahm I April 23, 2026 Standing firm is “in the Lord.” Your stability comes from being rooted in Christ. If you don’t know who you are in Him, you’ll look for identity somewhere else. Real joy comes from standing firm in the Lord. It means living aware that God is with you now and is coming again, and that truth reshapes your life. Bring your anxiety, fear, and uncertainty h...

Philippians 3:12-21 I Dakota Jackson I April 16, 2026 We can spend our lives building a legacy for this life, or live for one that lasts into eternity, a life that exalts Christ. The invitation is simple but costly, relentlessly pursue Jesus. The goal isn’t comfort or achievement, it’s more and more of Him. Some of us love the benefits of Jesus more than we love Jesus, so what’s on the throne of y...

Philippians 3:1-11 I Derek Jones I April 9, 2026 None of us have life fully figured out, we’re all carrying baggage. Culture constantly tells us to trust ourselves, but Scripture calls us to put no confidence in the flesh. Anything we rely on to feel right with God that isn’t Jesus won’t last. Real confidence is found in Christ. Like Paul, we’re invited to let go of confidence in both our sin and...

Philippians 2:12-30 I Nick Harsh I March 26, 2026 This week at Salt, we looked at what it means to live as citizens of heaven. While our culture drifts toward anxiety, complaining, and sarcasm, Jesus calls us to something different: radical obedience, defiant joy, and sacrificial love. Not to earn salvation, but to live from it. If we want to be a force for good and an effective witness, it starts...

Philippians 2:1-10 I RJ Frahm I March 12, 2026 This week at Salt, RJ opened up Philippians 2 and walked us through Paul’s call to humility. We often think humility comes from trying harder, but Scripture shows us a different way. True humility is formed at the foot of the cross. This is where we see that we are more sinful than we thought, yet more loved than we ever imagined. When those truths co...

Philippians 1:20-30 I Derek Jones I March 5, 2026 As we continue through the book of Philippians, Derek tackles the question “What are you living for?" The apostle Paul claims “To live is Christ and to die is gain.” When Christ is our greatest treasure, life becomes fruitful work, and death becomes eternal glory. But you can’t truly see death as gain till you see Christ as beautiful. Are you...

Philippians 1:12-20 I Chris Cook I February 26, 2026 Persecution is promised if you follow Jesus but what does that actually mean? Chris walks us through the promise, the paradox, and the purpose of persecution. He talks about how suffering isn’t wasted and how God can use our pain to bring about a kind of goodness we never would’ve expected. The gospel doesn’t remove suffering, it reshapes how we...

Philippians 1:1-11 I Derek Jones I February 12, 2026 What if these four years of college could shape the next forty years of your life? Philippians opens with a bold invitation into gospel partnership, a shared mission that gives direction to everything else. Maybe our problem isn’t a lack of stimulation, but a lack of purpose. Tune in as we talk about building a foundation that lasts. @saltindian...

1 Corinthians 15:1-19, 56-58 I Derek Jones I January 15, 2026 In this episode, we unpack 1 Corinthians 15 and why the resurrection is the heartbeat of the Christian faith. The gospel isn't just a phrase but a reality we can live in because Christ conquered death. This is the good news that shapes everything! @saltindiana I https://embassybtown.org/salt

Luke 2:25–38 | Derek Jones | December 11, 2025 We are a people longing for peace and joy and it is met in the consolation of Christ. In the story of Simeon and Anna, we see what it looks like to wait for God with open hands. Christmas reminds us of mind-numbing grace: salvation can’t be earned, and it can’t be lost. @saltindiana I https://embassybtown.org/salt
