A Sick Man's Cry for Help
Thursday, March 19, 2026
You can’t hide your sin from God. He sees all and knows all. Today on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we’ll study Psalm 38, where David is physically sick, and he realizes that his illness is a direct result of his actions. Although David’s body is weak, he knows that God won’t forsake him, and he’s waiting on the promises of his Savior’s grace and mercy.

Rejoicing in Trials
"Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:10-12
The Bible tells us that those who are persecuted are blessed, but that message is certainly contrary to the message the world believes. So how is it that Christians can rejoice in trials? In this booklet, Dr. Boice describes what it means to be persecuted for Christ, tells us how to rejoice in persecutions, and challenges us to stand up and be counted.
