 "answer": "Open a conversation about how the enemy fights, and ask your friend to consider why trouble so often lands at the worst possible moment. Walk together through Satan's tactics on Job, his timing, his chaos, his violence, his blow upon blow, using Job 1:13-22 to show the strategy and 2 Corinthians 2:11 to remind you both that we need not be ignorant of his schemes.",
