Drawing from 1 Timothy 2:1-7, Pastor Jared Richard opens with a pointed and convicting question: do we actually value prayer, or do we simply say we do? Much like a gym membership that never gets used, many believers confess the importance of prayer while their lives tell a different story. Paul's charge to Timothy — "first of all" — was not merely the beginning of a to-do list, but a declaration of priority. Prayer must come first because the work of gospel ministry is spiritual work, and no amount of human effort, strategy, or cleverness can tear down spiritual strongholds. As Paul reminds us in 2 Corinthians 10:3-4, "the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds." Timothy needed to armor up before stepping into Ephesus, and so do we. Pastor Jared then expands the content of faithful prayer, urging the church to pray not just for personal needs, but for the salvation of all kinds of people — neighbors, enemies, people of every nation, ethnicity, and political persuasion — because the gospel is radically inclusive in its audience even while it is exclusive in its claim. There is one God and one mediator between God and men, the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself as a ransom for all (1 Tim. 2:5). This truth gives us every reason to pray with confidence: God desires all people to be saved, and Jesus is at the right hand of the Father right now, interceding on our behalf. Prayer, then, is not where ministry ends — it is where ministry begins, fueling the proclamation that follows. WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

In this episode of the One Life Podcast, Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ continue the conversation through 1 Peter 3:8–22, exploring what it looks like to live with active faith in a broken world.They unpack the call to unity, compassion, humility, and submission—especially when life feels unfair or difficult. From trusting God with the areas we want to control to surrounding ourselves with people who can speak into our blind spots, following Jesus means learning to live with open hands.Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ also discuss how believers can navigate a culture where truth is often challenged. Instead of responding with anger or simply trying to prove a point, we're called to brokenhearted boldness—holding firmly to truth while approaching people with the compassion and grace of Jesus.Through suffering, uncertainty, and changing culture, our mission remains the same: reaching one more life for Jesus.

In this powerful message, Pastor Jared shares about how vital it is to mature in our faith, and in our understanding and the application of His Word.

September 20, 2026 Associate Pastor Jared Capelle by Basic Truth Church, Cygnet, Oh

In this episode of the One Life Podcast, Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ unpack 1 Peter 3:1–7 and God's countercultural design for marriage.They discuss biblical submission, the equal value of husbands and wives, and the distinct roles God gives within marriage. Husbands are challenged to be “worth following” by first submitting to Jesus and leading their homes with love, respect, spiritual maturity, and intentionality.When Jesus is Lord of our lives and our marriages, we make room for God to work and allow our relationships to reflect His design.

In this sermon drawn from 1 Timothy 1:12-21, Pastor Jared Richard opens with a tender illustration about whispering "Dad loves you" into his children's ears — not because they don't know it, but because he wants that truth pressed so deeply into their hearts that it carries them through their hardest moments. In the same way, Pastor Jared reminds us, the gospel is something we need to hear again and again — not because it changes, but because we do. Familiarity with the good news can breed a dangerous numbness, and when that happens, we must stop and let the eternal weight of this message sink in once more. Following Paul's gospel journey through the passage, Pastor Jared traces three movements: the gospel humbles us, the gospel moves us to worship, and the gospel commits us to faithful service. Paul, once a blasphemer and violent persecutor of the church, is arrested mid-letter by the memory of the mercy that found him. As 1 Timothy 1:15 declares, "The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost." That remembrance doesn't pull Paul off course — it fuels everything he's about to charge Timothy to do. Pastor Jared closes with a call for the church to hold faith and a good conscience together, just as Paul charges Timothy in verse 19, because these two things build on one another. When they are separated — when belief drifts from behavior — faith is shipwrecked, as it was for Hymenaeus and Alexander. But when the gospel is kept before us, it keeps us humble, stirs us to worship, and commits us to waging the good warfare for the glory of God and the good of those around us who still need to hear that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners.

Sept. 20, 2026 Life often brings things we never saw coming, and Joseph's story reminds us that we can't always control what happens to us, but we can choose how we respond. After years of waiting, setbacks, and silence, Joseph was suddenly brought from prison to the palace because God had been preparing him the whole time. In Genesis 41, we see how trusting God's timing, God's power, and God's Spirit can shape us for the doors He is preparing to open. This week, we'll discover that waiting seasons are never wasted when our lives remain surrendered to God. About This Sermon Series In The Story of Joseph, we'll follow a journey marked by dreams and betrayal, temptation and waiting, purpose and restoration—and discover how God was at work through it all. From the pit to the prison to the palace, Joseph's story reminds us that even when we can't see what God is doing, He is still writing a bigger story. Join us for this nine-week series as we learn to trust God's promises and see the bigger picture.Helpful Links for Newbreak Church   If you are new to Newbreak, we would love for you to fill out a connect card: https://newbreak.church/card​​​​​​​​​​​   Complete a Spiritual Gifts Assessment: https://newbreak.church/gifts/   We have Newbreak Church for your Kids too: https://newbreak.church/kids   Your giving helps bring life change to the entire world.

Pastor Jared delivers a sermon on Luke 11:24-26, warning against leaving one's life spiritually empty after removing negative influences. He emphasizes the need to fill the 'house' with Jesus as master, not just behavioral modification, and illustrates the dangers of self-mastery and the importance of a genuine relationship with Christ.

Pastor Jared Richard launches a new series through 1 Timothy by grounding the church in a simple but weighty truth drawn from 1 Timothy 3:15 — that the church is "the household of God, a pillar and buttress of the truth." The local church, he argues, is not merely a gathering of people who enjoy one another's company. It is the place where the gospel of Jesus Christ is proclaimed, protected, and passed on. That is what makes the church irreplaceable, and that is what must be guarded with diligence. To make his case, Pastor Jared walks through 1 Timothy 1:1-11, where Paul writes to Timothy about a serious crisis in the church at Ephesus — false teaching. The false teachers were internal, intriguing, and yet ultimately empty of any godly power. Paul had warned the Ephesian elders in Acts 20:28-31 that "fierce wolves will come in among you, not sparing the flock," and from among their own leadership no less. Now that warning had come to pass, and Paul's apostolic solution was faithful leadership — leaving Timothy behind to evaluate and restore the eldership so that the church could once again be a faithful witness to the gospel. Pastor Jared closes by reminding Bay Leaf that the reason all of this matters is the gospel promise of transformed lives. The gospel is the only message to which God has attached his transforming power. False teaching, whether it comes from a pulpit or a worship song laced with prosperity gospel theology, puts the burden back on the people and distracts them from the completed work of Christ. The aim of the charge, as Paul says in 1 Timothy 1:5, is "love that issues from a pure heart, a good conscience, a sincere faith" — and that kind of love only grows in soil that has been cultivated by the faithful, Spirit-empowered proclamation of the gospel.

Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ unpack the challenging topic of biblical submission and what it means to truly trust Jesus as Lord. Drawing from 1 Peter, they discuss how submission isn't about tolerating abuse or wrongdoing—it's about trusting God enough to make room for Him to move.They also tackle practical tensions Christians face today, including parenting, workplace authority, politics, media consumption, and how to be salt and light without retreating from the world. Ultimately, it's a conversation about standing firm, trusting God, and living faithfully in a culture that doesn't always share our values.

Ever wish someone actually knew you — not the edited, everything's-fine version, but the real one? In week one of our series Casual to Committed Christian, we take an honest look at why God never designed you to do life alone, and why real community feels scarier than it sounds — and is worth it anyway.We don't sugarcoat it: opening up to people is hard. There's a chasm between where you are and actual connection, and it's filled with real fear — of being misunderstood, mishandled, or finally being seen for who you really are. So this week we talk honestly about that fear, and about the good news underneath it: Jesus already knows every part of you, including the parts you hide. And he didn't run from it. He ran toward it, all the way to the cross, so you could belong, not just show up.If you've ever felt alone in a room full of people, this message is for you.

In 2026, we're slowing down to soak in the story that invites us to believe. The Gospel of John doesn't just tell us what Jesus did—it reveals who He is. Through signs and stories, questions and conversations, light and life, John calls us again and again to “come and see.” Over the next year, we'll walk with Jesus from the opening words—“In the beginning”—to the empty tomb, discovering how encountering Christ shapes our faith, our hope, and our everyday lives. This is more than a study; it's an invitation to deeper belief and fuller life. Learn more with Pastor Jared.

In this episode of the One Life Podcast, Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ unpack 1 Peter 2:4–10 and what it means to build your life on Jesus as the cornerstone.They talk about how the things we depend on—career, success, relationships, finances, or approval—can become shaky foundations when they take the place of Christ. As living stones, we're not meant to follow Jesus alone; we're being built together as His church.They also explore what it means to be a royal priesthood, the direct access we have to God through Jesus, and why our identity can only be truly secure in Christ.No matter your past or your failures, Peter's story reminds us that God restores, redeems, and still has a purpose for your future. When Jesus is your cornerstone, you can stand firm through any storm.

Preaching from Jonah 3, Pastor Jared Richard opens with a striking observation — the greatest miracle in the book of Jonah may not be the great fish at all, but the repentance of Nineveh, one of the most wicked cities in the ancient world. Drawing on the deliberate literary parallels between Jonah 1 and Jonah 3, Pastor Jared shows that God's second call to Jonah is more than a plot device. It is a picture of mercy — the same mercy God has extended to all of His people, and the very reason we go to the lost. Just as God gave Jonah another chance to rise in obedience, He has given us, through new birth in Christ, not just a second chance but the Spirit-empowered ability to take advantage of it. From there, Pastor Jared turns to what we trust in as we go — the Word of God. He points out that from Jonah 3:5 forward, Jonah himself virtually disappears from the narrative, and it is the Word that does the work. Even with a divided heart, Jonah spoke what God gave him to say, and God used it mightily. Drawing on Philippians 1:15-18, Pastor Jared reminds the church that the mission of God does not depend on our eloquence, our apologetic skill, or even the perfect condition of our hearts — it depends on the faithful declaration of God's Word and trust in the power of His Spirit. Finally, the repentance of Nineveh — believing God, humbling themselves, crying out to Him, and turning from their evil ways — gives the church a clear and compelling picture of what Biblical repentance looks like. And because we carry a greater message than Jonah ever did, the incarnate Word of God Himself in the Lord Jesus Christ, we go with even greater confidence and an even greater promise to offer the lost.

Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ continue the conversation through 1 Peter, unpacking what it looks like to build an unshakable faith through spiritual growth. They discuss growing mentally, morally, relationally, and in our understanding of Scripture—and why deep roots matter before the storms of life come.Spiritual growth doesn't happen by accident. The challenge is simple: What's the one step God is asking you to take next?

Lead Pastor Jared Nieman from Abundant Church in El Paso, Texas brings us an incredible Word from God and how there are times we feel shattered from addiction and depression. We have to imagine that God can breathe life and light into our spirit! God can bring breathtaking recovery. He want to heal us spectacularly. Jesus paid on the cross for us simply to receive. It's not about us, it's about what He did for us! If we don't handle life's moments the right way, the moments become seasons. Your life is not what happens to you, it's about how you respond. We have to grab hold with both hands to Jesus! He comes into our lives even in our mess. We may be dealing with depression but we aren't depression. Bad things happen, none of us are exempt from persecution and trials. We have to be on guard so that weeping does not become grieving. In these moments it's the devil, because the devil wants us to live in darkness. David strengthened himself with his trust in God! David didn't join in what everybody around him was doing. David chose to be recovered! We have to get angry at the situation the devil is trying to tell us. Even before our recovery, we chose to be recovered!

Ever notice how easy it is to obey someone... until you find out you don't have to anymore? In Week 4 of Sex, Love, Work and War, we open Ephesians 6 to talk about authority — the kind we live under as kids, as employees, and honestly, as grown adults who still answer to someone.Along the way: what "submit" actually means (hint: it's not MMA fighting), why obedience has a season but honor doesn't, the guy at a lumberyard who never once tried to game the time clock, and why "stop the wave" might be the best one-sentence parenting advice you'll hear all year.Whether you're wrestling with a boss, a teenager, or aging parents who still think they're in charge, this message is for you — because under every human authority in your life, there's one Lord, and he used his authority to serve, not to be served.

Pastor Jared delivers a message about what it means to truly worship God—not just through our songs, but through a life of surrender and obedience. We are called to approach a holy God with reverence, while remembering that through Jesus, we have been made worthy to enter His presence. He is holy. He is worthy. He is Lord. So the question is: How are you approaching worship?Live surrendered. Worship with reverence. And never forget that our access to God is only because of Jesus Join us Sundays at 9AM or 11AM!

In this sermon on Jonah 2, Pastor Jared Richard draws a compelling parallel between Jonah and the prodigal son of Luke 15, calling Jonah "the prodigal prophet." Like the younger son who wanted the blessings of the father without the father himself, Jonah fled the presence of God, convinced that life in Tarshish would be better than obedience in Nineveh. But God, like the waiting father in the parable, graciously allowed Jonah to discover exactly where that road leads — not to freedom, but to death. Every step of Jonah's journey was downward: down to Joppa, down to the ship, down into the sea, down toward Sheol. And it is in that descent that God gets Jonah's attention, using the very real prospect of death to awaken the prophet to his desperate need for the only One who can truly save. Pastor Jared traces three movements in Jonah's journey — from life to death, from the ship to the fish, and from west to east — each one carrying a lesson God wants not just Jonah, but all of us, to learn. The fish was not a punishment; it was a rescue. And the three days Jonah spent inside it were not wasted — they were sanctifying, humbling the prophet and preparing him to embrace the mission he had been running from. Jonah's psalm ends with the declaration, "Salvation belongs to the Lord" (Jonah 2:9), a truth that cuts both ways: we cannot save ourselves, and we cannot withhold from others the grace that has been so freely given to us. Pastor Jared closes with a challenge to the church — having received the grace of God, will we now declare that same grace to the broken world around us? WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ kick off our new Exiles series with a conversation about 1 Peter and what it means to live in this world without belonging to it. They unpack how trials and uncomfortable seasons can strengthen our faith, why our mindset matters when life gets hard, and how God uses difficulty to make us more like Jesus. They also talk about being salt and light, living on mission, navigating tough theological questions with grace, and learning to stand firm through every season.

Pastor Jared Richard opens Bay Leaf Baptist Church's new series through the book of Jonah by grounding the entire story in who God has revealed himself to be — "merciful and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love" (Exodus 34:6-7). Against that backdrop, Jonah's shocking rebellion becomes all the more striking. Called by God to arise and go to Nineveh, the great and wicked Assyrian city, Jonah instead flees west toward Tarshish — as far from God's presence as he can get. His resistance is both personal and national: he fears for his life among a brutal enemy people, and he simply does not want God to show mercy to those he considers undeserving of it. Yet even in Jonah's running, God is relentlessly at work. He hurls a great storm upon the sea, and through a series of providential events, the pagan sailors end up hearing about the one true God, crying out to him, and worshiping him — the very thing Jonah was commissioned to bring about in Nineveh. Pastor Jared uses this irony to press a convicting question upon the congregation: are we, like Jonah, willing to receive God's mercy but reluctant to declare it to others? As those who have been rescued from the storm of God's judgment through the death of Christ — the greater Prophet who willingly offered himself and was thrown into the sea of condemnation so that our waves of judgment might cease — we have been commissioned by the Word himself in Matthew 28:18-20 to go and make disciples of all nations. The call to saturate North Raleigh with the gospel is not a program; it is obedience to the same commission Jonah tried to outrun. WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Dating isn't about seeing how close you can get to the line—it's about pursuing relationships with wisdom, purpose, and holiness. In this episode, Pastor Jared and Pastor DJ talk through God-honoring boundaries, avoiding temptation, seeking wise counsel, and dating with marriage in mind.From physical boundaries to recognizing when a relationship isn't moving in the right direction, the conversation challenges Christians to slow down, invite community into the process, and make choices today that set the foundation for a healthy future. Ultimately, following Jesus means choosing transformation and obedience over culture, convenience, and feelings.
