This week on Together 4 Good, Pastor Nate welcomes a guest who's not often in the spotlight but whose story is worth hearing. Josh Ehlers – Bethany's accountant, runner, numbers guy, and quietly faithful presence in the church community, joins the podcast to talk about what keeps him showing up: to church, to community and to a life grounded in faith.Josh opens up about growing up in a small-town Ohio church, how his grandparent's faith shaped his own, and how that foundation stayed with him, even when church attendance waned, life shifted, and direction felt unclear.Their conversation weaves through the college years, a cross-country move to Denver, and the very unexpected path that led Josh to his current role at Bethany. While he didn't set out to work at a church, what he found was more than just a job, it was a sense of purpose and a space where faith and real life intersected.This episode is a reflection on why young adults still choose church. It's more than tradition. It's about connection, meaning, and showing up even when things are uncertain. Josh's story is honest, grounded, and filled with the kind of hope that can only come from staying rooted through it all.Why Listen:Hear how a rural Ohio church shaped a lifelong faith journeyExplore how young adults wrestle with and return to spiritual communitySee how purpose often shows up in unexpected waysBe encouraged by a story of resilience, faith, and quiet commitment

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. 

Pastor Nate encourages us to hold fast to our anchor in Christ through the storms of life. 

What does genuine faith in Jesus Christ look like? Pastor Nate explains from Luke 17:11-19 that the marks of genuine faith include a recognition both of our need and God's grace to save us. This should well-up in praise within us for God's work in our lives.

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!

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.

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
