SALT SHAKERS is a Christian Ethics Action Group based in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.

We aim to 'help Christians make a difference' in many different areas.

SALT SHAKERS is dedicated to helping Christians understand the times (1 Chronicles 12: 32) and equipping them to be SALT and LIGHT in the community (Matthew 5: 13-16) by upholding Biblical values and by being more aware of the ethical issues affecting today’s society.

SALT SHAKERS was started by Peter and Jenny Stokes at Crossway Baptist Church in October 1994 following a three-year campaign to stop poker machines being placed in shopping centres. It rapidly grew into an independent, trans-denominational ministry reaching across Australia and overseas. A wide range of issues are covered. It is now incorporated as a non-profit organisation.

SALT SHAKERS is guided by a Board, which includes people from a number of Christian denominations.

A Reference Panel was established in 2006 comprising various people who advise in their area of expertise.

Resistance Thinking

In 2007 we launched Resistance Thinking to help young people understand their Biblical worldview and engage effectively in discussion about the issues of our day.
