Keeping the Faith:
A Study in Jude

In a culture of subjectivity and “speaking your truth,” we need to know how to lovingly fight for our biblically-based, truth-filled faith. That’s where Jude comes in. With a striking combination of humility, genuine love, doctrinal faithfulness, and directness, the biblical writer Jude teaches you how to treasure the gifts of salvation, the faith, the Church, and—most of all—Jesus Christ. By unpacking Jude’s meaning-laden words, we can learn to keep ourselves for Christ, even as Christ is ably keeping us for Himself.

You’ll be amazed at how much you can learn as you walk verse-by-verse through this small epistle. You’ll learn:

why Jude uses metaphors like waterless clouds and wild waves
what was going on in Jude’s time theologically and why it matters
why the warning passages can be a deep comfort to the believer
to appreciate new dimensions of your belonging in Christ

Get to know the oft-neglected voice of Jude, be comforted and challenged in your faith, and build community as you gather friends and study His Word together in Keeping the Faith.

“The letter written by Jude is often ignored today, and so I was delighted to see such a helpful and practical explanation of Jude’s message. Davis shows that individuals, churches, and our culture can’t afford to ignore the message of Jude, for we must pay attention to Jude’s message to keep ourselves in God’s love.”

—Thomas R. Schreiner, Professor and Associate Dean, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary

“Lianna has written a remarkable Bible study that is both deep and rich. It is a solid guide to help enlarge one’s understanding of the call of God to fidelity to the truth of the gospel. It is beautifully written, with helpful commentary along with a thought-provoking study guide. Helpful quotes are included from theologians that enlarge the understanding of Jude’s message. Mercy, peace, and love are core themes, but Lianna also hits the head on Jude’s confrontational and convictional content that encourages believers, by God’s grace, to contend for the faith. I loved this Bible study. I am deeply thankful for how it led me to worship and delight in the truth of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. I highly commend it to you! This message is sorely needed for all believers.”

—Pamela MacRae, Professor and Program Chair for Ministry to Women, Moody Bible Institute

“Jude is a short book, but Davis directs our eyes to gems we might have missed and peels back layers we might have ignored. Her careful attention to each phrase invites us to treasure God’s Word, her lyrical writing guides us to savor each truth, and her theological insight leads us to marvel at the depth of this book. It is a journey not to be missed.”

—Arthur Kok, Equipping Ministry, Unlocking the Bible, and coauthor, The New Elder’s Handbook

“A necessary and crucial study for all believers. Lianna guides you through the words of Jude in a way that leads you to a greater depth of knowing the great richness of Christ as she teaches you why and how we must protect and defend our faith, holding fast to truth at all costs. A study I will no doubt go back to and encourage each of my disciples to go through.”
