Happy Thanksgiving! 🎉 In this special episode of the Shepnaz Podcast, Pastor Rob dives deep into the powerful message from the Book of Jude—a one-chapter letter with a timeless warning: Contend for the faith!

Discover:

  • Why Jude changed his message from salvation to urgency
  • The essential doctrines every Christian must hold firm
  • How false teachings infiltrate the church—and what we can do about it
  • Practical steps to protect your faith and influence the next generation

This episode reminds us that faith is a treasure entrusted to us, and we must fight for it with confidence in God’s protection. Plus, hear an inspiring story about knowing the Shepherd versus just knowing the Psalm.
