Who Is the Devil? A Deep Dive on Satan

When it comes to the devil, plenty of misconception circulate not only in our culture but in the church as well. Some of what we believe about Satan is informed by the Bible. But a lot of it comes from cultural traditions and misinterpretations of what the Bible says.

On this episode, we do a deep dive on what the Bible says about the devil. Who is he? What should we know about him? And what should Christians do to be prepared against him?

We take a look at what the Bible says about Satan, starting with Genesis and moving through the different places he is mentioned and described. More importantly, we seek to correct any misconceptions we have about him and offer insights into how we should approach the idea of spiritual warfare.
