  • Judah is being attacked on literally every side
  • God brings an encouraging prophecy to Ahaz and tells him to ask for a sign, but Ahaz refuses
  • Ahaz begs the king of Assyria for help - in a similar fashion as one would pray to God
  • Ahaz completely shutters the temple to God and replaces it with idols
  • Why idolatry breeds selfishness, which, in turn breeds violence

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.
