241: Salt Of The Earth with Darryl Bosshardt

 
 
 

Jesus said that we are the salt of the earth and that we are made to be salty, to bring a distinct flavor into the world as followers of Christ. But it’s hard to be salty spiritually when we’re not salty physically!  Salt is such a critical part of our physical well being that, we not only feel unwell when we don’t get enough salt, but we would die without enough salt in our body. Did you know our blood is similar to the ocean in salt content? And that you can’t get water into your cell without salt? Many people are perpetually dehydrated because they don’t have enough of this critical mineral in their body. But, we can’t just put any old salt into these Kingdom bodies, we need super high quality, unrefined salt just the way God made it. This week’s guest, Darryl Bosshardt from Redmond’s Real Salt, is giving us the real scoop about salt from the earth.
