Persecuted but not Forsaken

In this first lesson of the 2026 Sabbath School by SUMtv, Pastors Esteban Bohr, Daniel Miranda, and Melvin Blue dive into the powerful theme: “Persecuted but Not Forsaken.” Through biblical stories and present-day applications, we explore how trials become opportunities for deeper faith and divine connection.

✨ Questions we explore in this week’s lesson:

How does God stay near when we suffer for our faith?

What biblical promises confirm we are never truly alone?

Can joy exist during pain and persecution?

How does the hope of heaven reshape our view of suffering?

📖 Memory Text: "Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice!" (Philippians 4:4)

🔑 This lesson reminds us that even when we are persecuted, we are never abandoned. God walks with His people. His presence is real—even in the fire.

🙏 Join us to experience the peace, strength, and purpose God offers amid adversity. There is eternal hope in every hardship.
