This contemplative devotional episode reflects on Matthew 5:11–12 in the New Living Translation (NLT). Jesus concludes the Beatitudes by addressing the reality of persecution and slander for His followers, yet calling them blessed and inviting them to rejoice in their heavenly reward.
Host Nick Oyler encourages listeners to see their suffering for Christ in light of His own rejection and the witness of the prophets. A simple “prayer in the moment” after tasks helps you stay aware of belonging to Him throughout the day.
