God's Wisdom For A Complex World: Garden Living (6:1-19)
In this Sunday teaching, Pastor Nate Holdridge unpacks Proverbs 6:1-19, examining how God’s wisdom sharpens our ability to navigate life’s complexities. He highlights three key areas—wise financial stewardship, diligent work, and peacemaking—showing how each reflects God’s design for maturity. Through this passage, we see the contrast between wisdom and folly, learning how to avoid financial recklessness, overcome apathy, and reject divisiveness. Ultimately, Pastor Nate points us to Christ, the perfect steward, faithful worker, and true peacemaker, who redeems our failures and leads us into a life of wisdom.

Jesus Famous is a ministry of Calvary Monterey.We long to see the fame of Christ. By fame, we mean His glory, His renown, or, to borrow from Colossians, His preeminence (Colossians 1:18). When Jesus is famous, everything changes and He becomes our passion, because His love is better than life.
When Jesus is famous in us, we love Him. We know Him and He knows us. We are captivated by His grace, His forgiveness, and His love.
When Jesus is famous among us, we grow in Him. Our motivations change in pursuit of the gospel. His Spirit transforms us into a loving community.
When Jesus is famous through us, we share Him. Jesus saturates our everyday rhythms and conversations. We are empowered to be on mission, serving those around us.
