Monday, June 22, 2026
It’s been said that desperate conditions make for strong petitions. When we find ourselves facing a serious illness, and death comes knocking at our door, our perspective on life tends to change. Next time on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice we’ll be looking at Psalm 102, the cry of a desperate man seeking refuge in a mighty God.

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.
