In this episode of The Bible Explained, Jenn finishes up 1 Peter 5 and talks about the humility, love, and prayer we're supposed to have for each other, and how we stand against Satan when he tries to devour us like a lion:

What does it mean to humble yourself under the mighty hand of God? (In the Old Testament, God's mighty hand points to both punishment and deliverance.)
Cast all your worries on Him because He cares for you. That means all of them, even the little ones!
Jenn talks about drunkenness, recreational drugs, and medications when it comes to being sober and self-controlled.
Your adversary walks around like a roaring lion, but he also masquerades as an angel of light. Why we have to be watchful and discern every spirit.
Stand steadfast in your faith and remember you are not alone. Like Elijah, there are faithful believers all over the world, even in "Babylon."

Join Jenn as she reminds us that God cares deeply for us in our suffering, and that after a little while He will perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle us.

Meet Your Host

Jenn Kokal grew up in a Christian household. In 2019, she noticed a common problem - too many Christians questioning faith, God, and the validity of the Bible. Since Jenn had a newfound love for God's Word, she wanted to spread its truth. Thus, P40 Ministries and The Bible Explained were born. Jenn's mission with The Bible Explained podcast is to go through the Bible cover-to-cover while answering common questions about God, Christianity, historical validity of the Scriptures, and the state of the world.

In her personal life, Jenn is a homebody who loves playing music, painting, and being a youth leader alongside her husband. Jenn lives in a little house in the middle of the Ohio sticks with her husband of eleven years and their two Jack Russells, Bandit and Cody.
