Title: Hated Without a Cause
Speaker: Nate Holdridge
Overview: In this week's teaching at Calvary Church, Pastor Nate Holdridge walks through Psalm 35, David's raw prayer as a man attacked, betrayed, and taunted for no reason at all. We trace the psalm's three laments and their shared pattern of pain, honest request, and rising hope, showing how David's cry for vindication points forward to Jesus, who was "hated without a cause" and yet entrusted himself fully to the Father. Along the way, we address the hard question of imprecatory prayer, the ache of being wronged by those closest to us, and the gospel hope available to anyone carrying pain they didn't deserve.

Title: A Prayer for When You Aren't Quite Yourself
Speaker: Nate Holdridge
Overview: You're not yourself when you're afraid—but God is himself despite your fears. In this week's message from our summer Psalms series, Pastor Nate Holdridge walks through Psalm 34, a prayer David wrote from one of the lowest points of his life, after fear had driven him to feign madness before a pagan king. What David discovered in that cave became both a testimony and a teaching: the LORD answers those who seek him, draws near to the brokenhearted, and redeems the life of his servants. Pastor Nate unpacks what it means to "taste and see that the LORD is good," to trade the fear of people for the fear of the LORD, and to practice relentless praise even when circumstances haven't changed. The message lands where the psalm itself lands—at the cross, where the true Righteous Sufferer had not one of his bones broken, our Passover Lamb whose death secures our redemption. Whether you're walking through affliction or simply not quite yourself these days, this is an invitation to turn to the God who is near.

Title: Trust Jesus All the Way
Speaker: Nate Holdridge
Overview: In this message from our series The Promised King and His Good Kingdom, Pastor Nate Holdridge walks through Matthew 10:26–42, where Jesus calls his disciples away from the universal craving for safety and comfort and toward a life of danger and reward. Working through three movements—Jesus stood for us, so we stand for him (Matthew 10:26–33); Jesus lost his life for us, so we lose our lives for him (Matthew 10:34–39); and Jesus brought a message to us, so we receive his messengers (Matthew 10:40–42)—we learn how rightly ordered fear, trust in a Father who values us more than many sparrows, and the memory of the cross free us to acknowledge Christ before others. Along the way we’ll confront our region's invitation to curate the good life, clarify what Jesus means by bringing "a sword" into our households, and stand reminded that loving Christ above all is the best gift we can give our families. Because he stood for us, lost his life for us, and sent his word to us, Jesus is worthy of our wholehearted trust—all the way.
