About this Session
In our time together, we will study Matthew 5:10–12. We will learn to have a voice to proclaim the good news. Though persecution comes, learn to rejoice in the Lord in the mist of the circumstances. We will read scriptures that we help us explore the encouraging Word to live righteously because the Kingdom of Heaven is ours. The session will be divided into 3 sections.
