Today we celebrate 3 years as a church at Portrait. Today we were reminded of the beauty of our limitations and how they make us dependent on Jesus. As we head into another year, we take the same posture, dependent on what God can only do.

In the final message of our CONTEND series, Pastor Jay teaches from Jude 24–25 that the God who calls us to contend for the faith is the same God who faithfully keeps us from falling away. Our confidence rests not in the strength of our grip on God, but in His unwavering grip on us—a grace that will one day present us blameless before His glory with great joy. This message invites us to contend from praise rather than panic, trusting that sin may wound us, but through Jesus, it will never have the final word.

This week, guest speaker Hakeem Bradley walks us through Jude 20–23 and shows us what contending actually looks like: building our lives on the faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, remaining in God’s love, showing mercy to those who are wavering, and helping pull others back from paths that lead away from Jesus.

The faith has been handed down to us. The baton is now in our hands. How will we carry it faithfully in our time?

Contending for the faith does not mean fighting people about what we believe—it means faithfully fighting for the gospel entrusted to us. Through the book of Jude, CONTEND explores how to remain grounded in truth, guarded by humility, and responsive with both conviction and love in a culture that constantly tries to pull us off balance. This is not a call to throw more spiritual punches, but to develop a holy posture—secure in the God who keeps us and ready to stand firm whatever comes.

Vanity is not simply thinking too highly of yourself—it is allowing the most temporary part of you to carry the weight of your identity and worth. In this message, Pastor Jay explores how Jesus frees us from managing our image so our bodies can become offerings of worship, service, and self-giving love.
