Jenn finishes 2 Peter 1, where Peter explains why we can trust what he taught:
Peter won't stop reminding us about Jesus, even though we already know. He considered it negligent not to speak about Jesus.
Evangelism isn't everyone's gift, but it's everyone's calling. How can you share your faith?
Peter knows his "tent" is coming down soon. What does Peter mean by "tent"?
"We didn't follow cunningly devised fables." Peter saw the Transfiguration himself.

In this episode of The Bible Explained, Jenn walks through Job's answer to Eliphaz in Job 6, where Job lays it on his friends for the comfort they failed to give him:
Job tells his friends he wouldn't be complaining if he weren't suffering, and compares Eliphaz's speech to tasteless, slimy food with no salt on it.
Job asks God to just crush him and cut him off. Do we sometimes think we have God's plan for our lives all figured out?
Job takes comfort that he has not hidden the words of the Holy One.
Eliphaz told Job his piety and integrity should be his hope. But our hope cannot be in our own virtue, only in God himself.
Job compares his friends to a deceitful brook. One minute it's there, the next it's gone.
Join Jenn as she admits she sometimes struggles with compassion herself, and encourages us to show comfort and encouragement to somebody we know who is going through it right now.

Today, we start a brand new book of the Bible, where Peter gives us a list of virtues to work to in the Christian life:
Is Peter suggesting that works save us?

Was Peter really the only person in Scripture to claim Jesus as "his God and Savior"?

Peter reminds us the Christian walk is a process that we all have to learn.

The parable of the wedding feast and the man who showed up without wedding clothes. Why did God throw him into the outer darkness?

In this episode of The Bible Explained, Jenn continues through Eliphaz's speech in Job 5 and shows how true statements about God can become dangerous when they're misapplied to someone who is suffering:
Eliphaz tells Job not to bother appealing to the holy ones. Is that really true? Does God answer people who bring Him their questions?
Eliphaz claims he has seen the foolish crushed in the city gate and implies Job brought his suffering on himself. When we see somebody suffering, can we automatically assume they did something wrong?
A fallen world, the defeat of Satan's false arguments, an example for future believers, and a war on the prosperity gospel. Jenn shares reasons God allowed Job to suffer that had nothing to do with sin.
Paul actually quotes Eliphaz in 1 Corinthians 3. Some of the best lies out there are twisted truths, or truths that are misapplied.
"Happy is the man whom God corrects" is a crazy thing to say to a man mourning in ashes. Discipline is never fun when it happens, but we shouldn't despise it.
Join Jenn as she reminds us not to assume every single time that God is angry with us, and encourages us to ask Him to reveal why we're going through what we're going through.
