Title: God's Wisdom for a Complex World: Decision MakingSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In a world with endless options and immense pressure to make the perfect choice, how can we faithfully navigate life's big decisions? In this teaching from the book of Proverbs, Pastor Nate Holdridge presents a liberating, five-part framework for godly decision-making. Pastor Nate explains that God is less interested in giving us mystical signs and more interested in shaping us into people of character who can choose wisely. This message will equip you to move from the paralysis of fearing you'll miss God's will to the freedom of walking with Him in wisdom, trust, and purpose.Link to Sermon Notes

This week, Pastor and Texas State Representative Nate Schatzline delivers a powerful message on the purpose and significance of consecration in the life of a believer. In his teaching, Pastor Nate takes time to clearly define what consecration truly means—not just as a spiritual term, but as a daily posture of surrender and intentionality in following Christ. He also challenges listeners to reflect on what it really means to believe, moving beyond surface-level faith into a life marked by commitment and sacrifice. Drawing from John 12, Pastor Nate unpacks the critical difference between those who are consecrated and those who are not. He emphasizes that consecration isn't about perfection, but about positioning your heart to say yes to God—no matter the cost. Through Scripture and practical examples, he illustrates how a consecrated life is one that embraces obedience, holiness, and purpose. He dives into the characteristics that define a consecrated person. Pastor Nate paints a vivid picture of what it looks like when a believer is fully surrendered, passionately pursuing the presence of God, and allowing that pursuit to shape every decision, relationship, and priority. The vision of Mercy Culture is to take people from corporate encounters with God to daily personal encounters with God. At Mercy Culture, one of our unique characteristics is that we are a presence driven church. We are not built around any person or ministry. We are built around the presence of God. Each week, you will hear a teaching from our Lead Pastors, Les and Nikki Cody or another leader in our community. To learn more about Mercy Culture, visit https://mercyculturewaco.com 

This week, Pastor Nate  continues our journey through the book of Proverbs by exploring the theme of self-control—a powerful, protective, and essential virtue for godly living.We start by reflecting on Proverbs 25:28, which compares a person without self-control to a city with broken-down walls—vulnerable and defenseless. Without self-control, we open ourselves to temptation, attack, and despair. But by applying the wisdom of Proverbs, we can begin rebuilding those protective walls.We focus on three key areas where self-control matters most:Guarding Our WordsProverbs teaches us to restrain our lips and think before we speak—not everything on our mind needs to be said. Wisdom comes when we acknowledge that we don't know it all and choose our words carefully, asking: Is it True, Helpful, Inspiring, Necessary, and Kind?Practicing PatienceProverbs 16:32 tells us that patience is more powerful than physical strength. We saw this modeled in the lives of Jackie Robinson, MLK Jr., and Joseph, who all overcame injustice through patient endurance. We, too, must fix our eyes on the reward, trusting God's timing.Delaying GratificationFrom time and money to food and technology, Proverbs urges us to store up wisely and avoid overindulgence. Lack of self-control in these areas leads to regret, unpreparedness, and bondage. Small, daily decisions in stewardship and restraint lead to long-term peace and freedom.Lastly, we look at self-control as a fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23). This isn't just about willpower or Stoic philosophy. True self-control comes from walking with the Spirit, surrendering our fleshly desires to God, and letting His power work in us. It's not behavior modification—it's spiritual transformation.

Pastor Nate brings the message, "A Surprising Inheritance” from Joshua 13-21.  Big chunks of Scripture outlining land allotments/inheritances to ancient Israel can seem insignificant and, quite frankly, boring for today's reader.  But all Scripture is profitable for us (2 Tim 3:16), and in this week's sermon we will see that God has a purpose for including this information in His Word to us. 

Does the Bible really restrict women from ministry leadership? Discover the powerful examples Scripture gives us of women God chose to lead. From judges to apostles, the evidence might surprise you.

Waiting… Waiting… Waiting… Having Patience… Is never fun.  Never exciting, until the season or the product is finished.  We can't rush the process, God has purpose in our wait.  The farmer in the 1st century had patient perseverance.  Our life should resemble the farmer's patience in the wait, because the fruit on the other side is worth it all.  Be encouraged today as Pastor Nate discusses the benefit of waiting for God's Timing! 

Welcome to Christ Community's Online Service! What happens when grace changes your life—but others still see who you used to be? In this powerful message from Acts 9:19–31, we explore what it means to live in the tension between who you were and who you're becoming. Pastor Nate shares personal stories and biblical insight into how grace moves us forward, gives us courage, and surrounds us with people who see who God is shaping us to be. If you've ever felt unseen, untrusted, or unsure if change is worth it—this one's for you. For prayer and to stay connected, please visit: https://www.cccgreeley.org For Giving: https://www.cccgreeley.org/give/ Discussion Guide: https://cccgreeley.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/2025-6-14-15-Group-Discussion-Questions.pdf Baby Bottle Round UP -- Time to bring them back!

In today's episode, Pastor Nate dives into what the Book of Proverbs has to say about happiness. Spoiler alert: it's not about chasing feelings — it's about living wisely while pursuing Christ. Proverbs shows us that true happiness comes from a life rooted in wisdom, righteousness, and trust in God.We explore verses like Proverbs 3:13 — “Happy is the one who finds wisdom and who gets understanding” which remind us that happiness isn't found in quick fixes or external success, but in the choices we make daily to meditate on God's Word and live in humility, and generosity.We finish up with a picture given to us in Psalm 1 by King David  about a person who finds his/her happiness in pursuing God. That person is like a tree planted by the rivers of water! Tune in for practical takeaways and spiritual encouragement as we unpack biblical wisdom for a happy life.

Title: God's Wisdom for a Complex World: HomeSpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this Sunday Sermon, Pastor Nate Holdridge teaches from Proverbs to cast a vision for the home as the first arena of discipleship. Drawing from wisdom literature and the teachings of Jesus, Pastor Nate calls parents to intentional training, loving discipline, and the cultivation of a godly atmosphere. But this message extends beyond nuclear families—it speaks to every believer in Jesus' new family, the church. This is a timely and Scripture-saturated teaching that helps all of us build households—and church communities—formed by the fear of the Lord and the wisdom of Christ.Link to Sermon Notes

Pastor Nate brings the message, "Depending on God” from Joshua 9-12. Have you taken time to pray over the matters you are facing today?  We might aim for a quick answer with Gemini or ChatGPT or call a friend, but will you take a moment to seek God first?  Joshua 9-12 helps us keep life simple: go to God first and depend on Him to lead you through the day.

Pastor Nate brings the message, "Who is Ultimate?” from Joshua 5:15 - 8:35.  When Joshua and the rest of Israel approached the Jordan, they trusted what god had told them.  When they approached Jericho, they had to trust what God had declared.  When God spoke of sin, some failed to trust His commands.  This passage brings us back to simplicity: trust what God has spoken…and obey.

Pastor Nate shares a powerful encouragement from James 3 to use our words to speak life, not death, to build up rather than tear down. 

There goes my hero; watch him as he goes / There goes my hero, He's ordinary. Foo FightersHeros? Who needs them? Well, apparently everyone. The Marvel Universe movies alone have made $31 billion in movies alone - that doesn't include revenue from comic books, novels, and merchandise. And let's admit it: as long as there is a villain, a bully, or evil empire, we'll always need a hero. What is a hero? Someone who represents courage, selflessness, sets aside personal safety, and the drive to overcome obstacles to achieve a goal or protect others. They are soldiers and moms, first responders and dads, community change agents and children. They can be anyone. They simply arise when the time requires. It is probably YOU ... or soon will be. But we need archtypes. We need examples to show us how its done and what they did and why. In this series, Pastor Nate talks about important Biblical figures that - for no other reason being the right person at the right time - became heroes.

Pastor Nate explores a faith-filled morning routine, less about productivity, more about presence with God.So often, we're told that the key to a better life is to optimize everything, including our spiritual practices.

In this episode, Pastor Nate finishes up the teaching series on the book of Ephesians. In his sermon, he covers from Ephesians 5:21 through the end of chapter 6. He focuses on the importance of the church submitting to each other in order to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

Pastor Nate brings the message, "God Does the Impossible” from Joshua 3-4.  God delights in doing the "impossible" in order to bring glory to Himself.  For example, when the Jordan River was at peak height during the flood season, God chose to take Israel across it-on dry ground.  His powerful works are a reminder that God is carrying out a good plan in and through the lives of His people and nothing can stop Him.

Title: God's Wisdom for a Complex World: MoneySpeaker: Nate HoldridgeOverview: In this teaching, Pastor Nate Holdridge explores what Proverbs—and the whole of Scripture—teach about money, wealth, and material possessions. While many assume the Bible views money only as a danger or temptation, Pastor Nate reveals a more balanced and hopeful perspective: material possessions can be good gifts from God for our enjoyment, but they must never take His place in our hearts.
