Jenn continues in Job 8, where Job's second friend, Bildad, speaks up with some big untruths about God and Job:

  • "Shall the words of your mouth be a mighty wind?" Bildad calls Job a windbag.
  • Bildad says Job's children had it coming. Does suffering always mean you sinned?
  • "Many are the afflictions of the righteous." God promises deliverance, not a pain-free life.
  • Just because something is old doesn't mean it's true. Be like the Bereans and judge all things, new and old, according to Scripture.
  • Bildad compares Job to a reed with no water and shallow roots.

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.
