What audiences can expect

Inspired, encouraged, equipped.

“I am encouraged that the messages I prepare give people HOPE and are messages they talk about for years to come.”
Jared Wockenfuss

Energy from the first minute

Jared connects fast. Humor, story and honesty open the room before he ever asks anything of it.

Scripture applied to real life

Messages are rooted in hope and redemption, then brought all the way down to Monday morning.

Prepared for your people

Jared prepares material relevant to the specific audience, students, men, families, coaches or a whole congregation.

Something people repeat

The goal is a message people talk about long after the event, not one they forget in the parking lot.

Speaking themes

Themes shaped by real experience.

Every message is prepared for the event in front of him, shaped by the room, the audience and what your people need to hear.

01

Hope & Redemption

The message at the center of everything Jared speaks about: hope that holds up in real life, told with humor, truth and thought-provoking stories.

02

Men & Leadership

Shaped by years as a Men's Pastor. Practical encouragement for men who want to lead well at home, at work and in their church.

03

Family & Fatherhood

Built on a simple conviction Jared has lived by: the best gift you can give your family is your time.

04

Overcoming & Getting Unstuck

For rooms full of people carrying pressure they don't talk about. Stories, Scripture and next steps that help people move forward.

05

Youth, Camps & Chapels

High energy sessions drawn from Jared's years as a Children's and Youth Pastor, fun, honest, and never talking down to students.

06

Sports Ministry & FCA

Coaches, athletes, huddles and leagues. Competing with character and influence that lasts beyond the season.
