Today on the Shepnaz Podcast, Pastor Zack hosts Part 2 of Pastor Nick’s powerful message from the book of Exodus. In this final teaching, we’re confronted with the dangers of wandering hearts, impatience with God’s timing, and misplaced trust — and we’re reminded of the incredible hope we have in a God who is both holy and compassionate.

Pastor Nick walks us through the golden calf moment in Exodus, showing how God’s people wandered, how Moses stood in the gap, and how this story ultimately points us to Jesus — our true Mediator and Savior.
At the end of the episode, Pastor Nick joins Pastor Zack in the studio for a conversation and a look ahead to Made For More Sunday and what it means to truly be the hands and feet of Jesus.Key themes in this episode:

• Wandering impatience and misplaced trust
• God’s holiness and compassion held together
• Moses as an intercessor — and Jesus as the greater One
• Circumcising our hearts and surrendering fully to God
• Living as holy people who are wholly the Lord’s
