10-Point Theological Scorecard
Christology
Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)
Affirms 'one true God' and Jesus as Son of God per website core beliefs.
Strong
Scripture
Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?
'Bible is the inspired Word of God' — inspiration affirmed; inerrancy not explicitly stated.
Caution
Men's Discipleship
Intentional formation for men?
Men's small groups referenced on groups page; minimal detail.
Caution
Soteriology
Faith alone? How is salvation presented?
'Salvation is through faith in Christ alone, and is given by God's grace' — sola gratia/sola fide shape present.
Caution
Gender / Biblical Design
Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?
Not stated on available sources; church explicitly calls many topics 'negotiable (peripheral)' which typically signals egalitarian-open trajectory.
Verify — not yet assessed
Caution
Leadership Structure
Male elders/pastors? Accountability?
Multi-campus model: Jared Johnson (Scripps Ranch, main teaching), Markus Witherspoon (Tierrasanta); plurality visible.
Caution
Preaching Style
Expository or topical/therapeutic?
Not stated on available sources — verify.
Caution
Mission Clarity
Great Commission central?
Multi-campus, Kingdom Builders partner program with active outreach.
Strong
Cultural Alignment
DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?
'Peripheral doctrines' framing with broad 'no labels, no barriers' posture suggests avoidance of hard-edged cultural stances. | MOOP-attendance note (Adam Johns 2026-04-29): Newbreak was a "church home" in California for Adam and Maria. Senior Pastor Mike Quinn rated as good preacher; one associate pastor (name "Dewayne" or "Duane" — spelling unverified) personally counseled Adam and Maria through a hard time. Adam notes "California so they are left leaning, obviously" — verify cultural-trajectory drift over time.
Caution
Accountability Structure
Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?
Describes itself as 'free association with the Assemblies of God' — AG-charismatic heritage but markets as non-denominational.
