For eight weeks, we've explored Jesus' vision of the "good life" in the Beatitudes, flipping the world's expectations upside down. This week, we conclude the Beatitudes with the most unexpected blessing: "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness."

In a culture that values comfort, power, and approval, Jesus offers a countercultural truth—true blessing comes not from avoiding opposition but from standing firm in faith, even when it costs us. We'll uncover how persecution is an inevitable part of discipleship, the eternal rewards it brings, and how Jesus' ultimate victory gives us courage to endure.

Explore the paradox of finding joy in the midst of struggle and discover what it means to live the truly "blessed" life.
