Victory is found in the Woods | Shannon O'Dell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
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 j
Avoid Parenting Trouble | Shannon O'Dell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Family Game Night, Week 4. This week Pastor Shannon O'Dell pulls out the OG Trouble box and talks about kids, because kids are trouble. The message walks through three "pop-o-matic parenting myths" a lot of Christian homes believe, then gets into what actually shapes the next generation.

Most relationship problems come down to a communication problem, and the words we throw out reactively are usually the ones that do the damage. This week covers six things worth scratching out better words for: your
Build Your Family on a Sold Foundation | Shannon O'Dell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jenga is Swahili for "build." You stack 18 levels, three blocks wide, and then everybody starts pulling pieces out. The tower stands or falls on one thing: what's underneath. Pastor Shannon opens a new series on the family with the game on stage and five building blocks that decide whether a home holds up. Authority. A Roman officer in Matthew 8 gets something most religious people missed, and Jesus is amazed by it. Get the order right (God, then your spouse, then your kids, then your job) and e
