Blessed (Blessed Are the Persecuted)
Summary
This sermon, concluding a series on the Beatitudes, highlights that living a God-honoring life by placing Jesus at the center may lead to societal pushback and unpopularity. The key takeaway is that while the world values boldness and independence, faithfulness to God's attributes like meekness and purity will be met with challenges, but the good news is that our heavenly reward is assured and we are in good company with those who have lived this way before.
