🎙️ Episode 7 — Faith Under Fire: Responding to Persecution and Pressure
📖 Matthew 5:10–12; 1 Peter 4:12–14
🎯 Focus: What happens when faith becomes costly?

When the world mocks your convictions or pressures you to compromise, remember: faith that costs nothing changes nothing.

In this episode, Pastor John Baldwin unpacks Jesus’ words, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake,” and shows how believers can stand firm when their faith is tested.

👉 You’ll learn:

• Why persecution is not punishment, but proof of God’s presence.
• How to respond to pressure with humility, not hostility.
• What it means to rejoice when faith becomes costly.
• How eternal perspective gives strength for today.

💬 “Faith under fire is not fragile—it’s refined.”
