    How to Cross the Eternal Bridge | Shannon O'Dell

    The final week of No More Night. Week 1 was what heaven is, week 2 was what’s happening in the heavenlies right now, and this week Pastor Shannon O’Dell gets to the question the whole series has been building toward: how do you actually know you’re going? Three things. An atmosphere, out of Psalm 23, where God prepares a table in the presence of your enemies and there are only two chairs at it. Armor, out of Ephesians 6, with the helmet that tells everybody what team you’re on and the sword that’s really a dagger because spiritual battles are close-range. And a cross, because the other two don’t matter if you’ve never crossed over. It ends with the gospel laid out plainly and an invitation. If you’ve been living on a maybe, this is the one to watch.

    Are Angels Real? | Shannon O'Dell

    Week 2 of No More Night. Last week was what heaven is. This week is what’s happening in the heavenlies right now, while you’re sitting there reading this. Out of Ephesians 6, Pastor Shannon O’Dell lays out the three heavens, the four ranks of the enemy’s team, and the angels working on your behalf as ministering spirits, as protection over your kids, and as escorts home. Then it gets practical with Moses’ hands, Daniel’s twenty-one days, and Job, where physical acts of obedience here move things there. It lands on atmosphere. You vote on what gets invited into your home, your car, and your mind, and the weapons for changing it are not carnal.

    What Heaven is Actually Like | Shannon O'Dell

    Week 1 of No More Night, a three-week series on heaven. The title comes from Revelation 22:5, where John is shown a place that never needs the sun again. Pastor Shannon O'Dell walks through two guided tours of heaven in Scripture, John's and Paul's, and then lays out six wonders: the three stages of heaven, what your body will be like, the rewards and crowns waiting there, what you'll actually do, who you'll see again, and what won't be there at all. It's a lot of Scripture in one sitting, and the notes in the Brand New Church app have every reference he doesn't get to out loud. Coming up: week 2 is how heaven participates in your life right now, and week 3 is how you get from here to there.

    Stop the Bear from Attacking | Shannon O'Dell

    The final week of Cosmetheology Instead of Cosmetology. Pastor Shannon O'Dell lands on one of the strangest texts in Scripture: 2 Kings 2, where a group of young men mock Elisha for being bald and two bears come out of the woods. Before getting there, the message sets up who Elisha actually was. The double portion he asked for, the three things Elijah told him that got him there, and the fact that his bones were still raising the dead after he died. Then it gets practical. Honor God's house by belonging instead of attending, guarding it, and contributing instead of consuming. Raise a generation that honors authority. And watch out for the bear you think is harmless, because one in twenty-five will kill you no matter what you think of it.

    God Desires our Worship | Shannon O'Dell

    Week 4 of Cosmetheology Instead of Cosmetology. This week Pastor Shannon O'Dell is in Luke 7, where a woman with a reputation walks into a Pharisee's house, breaks open an alabaster jar, and wipes Jesus' feet with her hair. The message works through what she did and what Simon didn't. Praise is where Jesus shows up. Her past became her worship. And you get two options in the story: question it from a safe distance, or quit your old life and pour it out. It lands on the part most of us skip. Jesus already told us what he likes in worship, so stop projecting your version onto him and go read the receipts.

    How to Understand How Much God Loves You | Shannon O'Dell

    Week 3 of Cosmetheology Instead of Cosmetology. There are more than 100 verses about hair in Scripture, and this week Pastor Shannon O'Dell lands on one of the most personal ones. Out of Matthew 10, Jesus says the very hairs on your head are numbered. Not counted. Numbered. And in the original language, it was already finished before the world was made. The message works out what that means for how you live: fear God instead of everybody else's opinion, trust that you matter, give him all of yourself instead of a trimmed public version, and quit living in proving mode. It ends on the dream you've had sitting on the back burner, and five things that move it to the front.

    Don't Waste Your Future on a Feeling | Shannon O'Dell

    Week 2 of our series on the stories of hair in Scripture. Last week was Absalom. This week Pastor Shannon O'Dell takes on Esau, the hairiest man in the Bible, and the day he traded his birthright for a bowl of soup. Out of Genesis 25 through 32, the message unpacks what he calls the Esau syndrome: trading the when and then of heaven for the here and now of earth. It covers how to dodge impulse and hold onto your inheritance, two warnings for parents out of Isaac and Rebekah, and what changed in Jacob at the Jabbok when he finally stopped running. It ends where the whole thing has been going. A new name, a new walk, and change that carries past you to the next generation.

    Victory is found in the Woods | Shannon O'Dell

    Absalom had everything going for him. Good looks, a following, and five pounds of hair he weighed in front of the whole town once a year. He also had ambition his father never handed him, and it cost him his life in a forest outside the city. In this message, Pastor Shannon O'Dell walks through 2 Samuel 14 through 18 and what the Bible has to say about hair, image, and the environments we wander into. The woods killed more of Absalom's men than the sword did. They were good soldiers. They were just in the wrong place. If you've been fighting a battle you were never called to fight, or carrying bitterness toward someone who hurt you, this one is for you. Scripture referenced: Matthew 10:30, 2 Samuel 14:25-26, 2 Samuel 15:1, 2 Samuel 15:6, 2 Samuel 15:24, 2 Samuel 16:23, 2 Samuel 18:5, 2 Samuel 18:8-9
