Sept. 6, 2026
What do you do when life gets darker even though you’re trying to do the right thing? In Genesis 39, Joseph shows us that God’s presence is not proven by easy circumstances—but by His faithfulness in the middle of them. This week, we’ll look at how Joseph navigated temptation, betrayal, and injustice without losing sight of God’s goodness. And we’ll discover that even in the dark places, the Lord is still with us.

September 07, 2026 Beyond Sunday | The Story of Joseph | Episode 12 | "Messy Sin” Pastors JoAnn Johnson, Jared Johnson, and Markus Witherspoon
Sept. 7 2026
In this episode of Beyond Sunday, the team picks up in the middle of the Joseph story — Genesis 37, where jealousy curdles into betrayal and brothers sell their own flesh and blood into slavery. Using that dark turn as a starting point, they get honest about the destructiveness of sin: how it starts small, grows when it's fed, and quietly moves from something we control to something that controls us. The conversation doesn't stay in the diagnosis, though — they talk through confession, repentance, and the everyday power of truth-tellers, accountability, and community to help us walk into the light. Whether you're looking for encouragement, perspective, or a deeper understanding of the Gospel, this conversation will help you continue the journey beyond Sunday.

August 31, 2026 Joseph, Part 3 / Betrayed and Broken / Genesis 37:1-17 Pastor Frank Wooden
Aug. 30, 2026
Joseph’s story moves from a dream to a betrayal, from a favored robe to an empty cistern, and from a family’s hatred to a future God was still shaping. His brothers called him “the dreamer,” but the label they placed on him in crisis did not define his character or derail God’s plan. Their jealousy shows how sin begins in the heart and leads to destruction, while Joseph’s journey points to a God who remains in control even when everything feels out of control. What looks like the worst chapter may actually become the beginning of God’s next chapter.
1. During your success or trial, others will label you.
2. That label is not your character.
3. Your character will be revealed later.

August 25, 2026 Beyond Sunday | The Story of Joseph | Episode 11 Pastors JoAnn Johnson, Jared Johnson, and Markus Witherspoon
Aug 25 2026
In this episode, we kick off a brand-new series, The Story of Joseph, beginning in Genesis 37 with a dreamer born into a family marked by favoritism, jealousy, and unresolved wounds. Joseph's story reminds us that God can plant purpose in the middle of dysfunction — and that God-given dreams aren't limited by our imperfection, canceled by opposition, or dependent on everyone else's understanding. Instead, divine dreams often unfold through ordinary obedience, one faithful next step at a time. From the pit to the prison to the palace, we'll discover that even when we can't see what God is doing, He's still writing a bigger story. The question isn't whether we can see the whole story — it's whether we trust God enough to say, "I'm ready to go."

Joseph’s dreams begin in a family marked by favoritism, jealousy, resentment, and unresolved wounds—but Genesis 37 shows that God can plant purpose in the middle of dysfunction. This sermon explores how God-given dreams are not limited by imperfection, canceled by opposition, or dependent on everyone else’s understanding.

The question is not whether we can see the whole story, but whether we trust God enough to say, “I’m ready to go.”

August 17, 2026 Joseph, Part 1 / God’s Promises/ Genesis 28:10-22 Pastor Markus Witherspoon
Aug. 16, 2026
Life rarely unfolds the way we expect, and sometimes the biggest detours leave us questioning where God is in the middle of the mess. In this opening message of the Joseph series, we discover that before Joseph’s story begins, God was already at work through Jacob, offering His presence, promises, and grace to a broken man on the run. Through Jacob’s dream at Bethel, we see that God remains faithful even when we fall short and uncertain about the future. No matter where you find yourself today, God’s promises are still secure because they rest on His faithfulness, not your performance.

August 12, 2026 Beyond Sunday | The Book of Ephesians | Episode 10 Pastors Brooks Fuller, Jared Johnson, and Markus Witherspoon
Aug 12, 2026
In this episode of Beyond Sunday, the team wraps up the Ephesians series by looking back at two messages that bring Paul's letter home. First they dig into Ephesians 6:5-9 and the challenge to see our everyday work as worship — showing up with integrity, serving as though we're working for the Lord, and letting the way we work become a witness. Then they turn to the series finale, Ephesians 6:10-20, where Paul calls us to put on the full armor of God and stand firm in His strength rather than our own — a message that lands especially close as Newbreak celebrates 40 years of God's faithfulness and looks ahead to the next forty. Whether you're looking for encouragement, perspective, or a deeper understanding of the Gospel, this conversation will help you continue the journey beyond Sunday.

August 12, 2026 Ephesians, Part 13 / Pastors JoAnn Johnson and Mike Quinn
Aug. 9, 2026
As Newbreak celebrates 40 years of God’s faithfulness, this final message in Ephesians reminds us that the Christian life is not fought in our own strength, but in the power of Christ. Through Paul’s call to put on the full armor of God, we discover how to stand firm amid conflict, confusion, and spiritual battles. Filled with stories of God’s provision throughout Newbreak’s history, this sermon challenges us to anchor ourselves in truth, depend on God’s strength, and persevere in prayer. As we look back on four decades of faithfulness, the bigger question remains: How will we stand and step forward into the next 40 years?

August 05, 2026 Beyond Sunday | The Book of Ephesians | Episode 9 Pastors JoAnn Johnson, Jared Johnson, and Markus Witherspoon
Aug 5, 2026
In this episode of Beyond Sunday, the team works through Ephesians 6:1–4 and Paul's reframing of family life around one relationship: our relationship with Jesus. They get honest about parenting under Christ's authority instead of our own — kids who obey because they belong rather than because fear demands it, and parents called to nurture disciples rather than control them. Along the way, they sit with the harder questions, like what honor looks like when a parent was harmful, and why apologizing to your child might be the most powerful evangelistic act in your home. Whether you're looking for encouragement, perspective, or a deeper understanding of the Gospel, this conversation will help you continue the journey beyond Sunday.

August 03, 2026 Ephesians, Part 12 / Spirit-Filled Work is Worship / Ephesians 6:5-9 Pastor Jared Johnson
Aug. 2, 2026
What if the way you work says more about your faith than you realize? In Ephesians 6:5-9, Paul reframes ordinary work with an eternal perspective: whether we are leading, serving, managing, or simply showing up, we ultimately work before Jesus. This message challenges us to stop cutting corners when no one is watching and start seeing our workplace as a place of worship. When Christ is our true Master, our work becomes more than a job—it becomes a witness.
