You Can't Take it with You
Thursday, April 2, 2026
You’re probably familiar with the old saying: “You can’t take it with you when you go.” This week on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we’ll continue our study of the Psalms with Psalm 49. This psalm reminds us that our bodies are mortal--we will all eventually meet with death. So how should such a sobering reminder affect the way we live, and the choices we make?

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.
