Today we finish 2 Peter by talking about what kind of people we ought to be while we wait for new heavens and a new earth, and why Peter's defense of Paul matters:

  • We look for "new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells," so we should not fear the end of this world.
  • "Regard the patience of our Lord as salvation." God's delay is mercy for us, because only God knows if someone is truly saved.
  • Peter calls Paul a beloved brother whose letters stand with the other Scriptures. Peter warns that twisting them or disregarding leads to destruction.

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.
