The Challenge: DAY 20 – Beatitudes #5

The PERSECUTED

Welcome to DAY 20 of the 40-Day Mission-Minded FAMILY CHALLENGE!

Today, we are finishing-up our memorizing of the BEATITUDES from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, continuing with Matthew 5, verses 9-10. Today, our mission-minded emphasis is being a PEACEMAKER (we bring the “Gospel of Peace”) and being willing to be PERSECUTED for righteousness.

C’mon . . . Take the Challenge!
