Hall of Faith
We’ve talked about Samson and Jephthah the last couple rounds. They both made terrible mistakes and seemed to be poor leaders. We used them as “bad examples!” However, they BOTH are listed in the Hebrews 11 “Hall of Faith” passage!...
04.30.2024
On Purpose For a Purpose
“On Purpose, For a Purpose!” God outlined his plan for Samson’s life, yet Samson never fully stepped into it. God’s purposes prevailed, but Samson’s life was full of drama and disappointment. What lessons can we learn from the strongest man...
04.15.2024
Turn Right to Go Left
The Old Gray in Monterey, TN was the hometown GNCC race for Team Faith. Really cool to have Brian O'Rourke come out and share some stories - from botching the opening prayer at a jet ski race to winning gold...
03.25.2024
Swayed by Culture
How did the crowd miss that Jesus was The Messiah? They started out so good: “Hosannah!” But within a few days, “Crucify him!” Jesus came to fulfill a promise God made way back in Genesis, yet the people assumed he...
03.11.2024
Discerning Truth
4 years ago, the world shut down. Churches too! In hindsight sight, many pastors wished they hadn’t shut down at all. And others, namely those who latched onto the out-of-context “love your neighbor” theme - have gone wholesale into...
03.04.2024
Free From Sin
Last week during the “Not Ashamed” message, I made the statement that “Jesus came to set us free from the penalty of our sin AND the dominion of our sin.” Yet, so many times it seems that even as Christians,...
02.19.2024
Not Ashamed!
Romans 1:16 says “I am not ashamed of the Gospel.” But what does that mean? Die for the Good News? Sure. But Paul also demonstrated in that passage how to stand for truth in a culture that denied Ultimate Truth....
10.24.2023
Israel & Jesus
Hamas attacks Israel. Israel responds. Protests erupt. Is this Biblical? Apocalyptic? How should a Christian view Israel? How should we respond? All good questions, but there is one “question behind the question” that must be answered: “Why did Jesus have...
10.12.2023
Courage
Chapel from The Buckwheat 100. We talked about courage and looked at an obscure Old Testament king, Jehoshaphat. He’s actually a model of what NOT to do! But there was a prophet who is part of his story, Micaiaha, who...
09.17.2023
Sound of Freedom
“The Sound of Freedom” movie was released this past summer - it’s the true story of Tim Ballard who quit his job with Dept of Homeland Security to pursue a sex trafficking ring in S. America. At the end of...
06.26.2023
True North
The earth’s magnetic field is actually not at true north! Depending on where you are on the globe, it’s off by a few degrees. Much like our culture, it also changes! (By about 50km/yr) As Christians, the Word of God...
06.05.2023
Purpose in the Pain
“Purpose in the Pain” was the message for the Mason Dixon GNCC. It’s a tough topic! Life is hard and often unfair. Where is God? Does He know? Does He care? I can assure that not only does He see...
05.23.2023
Mistaker
I’m a ”mistaker!” I do dumb things all the time! Will that keep me out of Heaven? Or is there something more? A young man asked Jesus a similar question. It’s the story of “The Rich Young Ruler” in Matthew...
05.09.2023
Resurrection
The difference between Christianity and 40,000 other belief systems (religions) is that only Christianity can claim proof that it IS the way. And that is through a resurrected Savior - something only God could do! But how do we know...
04.17.2023
Snake on a Pole
John 3:16 is probably the most recognized Scripture reference, although many people do not know what it actually says. Nonetheless, many athletes use the number 316 to point the way to Jesus, who gave his life so that none would...
04.03.2023
Ancient Calendars
Ever since Genesis 3 there has been a Problem and a Promise! The problem is sin. And the promise is that the serpent’s head would be crushed! The way God brought about the promise is fascinating. Detailed to the very...
03.12.2023
Killing Lions
The General GNCC Chapel: Honoring God in the little things, or “Killing Lions!”
03.06.2023
Honoring God
I Samuel 2:30 says, “I will honor those who honor me.” In context, there’s a bit more to it. We dig in at the Wild Boar GNCC Chapel and learn about honoring God in the Old Testament and honoring God...
02.20.2023
REVIVAL in America
A revival started in 1970 at Asbury College and swept across the USA! Ripple effects from that still affect our culture today. Is God doing it again?! How does that work? If we really are living in the End Times,...
10.11.2022
American Persecution
This is a follow up to a couple weeks ago when we discussed “Situational Awareness: Are you paying attention?” Here, at the Buckwheat 100 GNCC, we took a look at a current event and then discussed Jesus’ teaching on End...
09.26.2022
Situational Awareness
There are so many end times prophecies unfolding before our eyes. One teacher called it “a convergence of the signs!” Although we can’t foretell the future, we should be aware as things happen and it should strengthen our faith! We...
09.11.2022
Day of the Martyr
“If it’s true, it’s worth dying for. If it’s worth dying for, it’s worth living for!”June 29, 2022 was the 1,956th anniversary of the Apostle Paul’s execution by Emperor Nero. We took a closer look at The Mountaineer GNCC.
07.31.2022
Is God Real
Recorded atop Snowshoe Mountain at 4,848 feet, the question was, “Is God real?” With spectacular views, it seemed the answer was/is obvious! Yet, there are still many objections: “What about evil? Suffering? Atrocities committed in the name of Christ? So...
06.07.2022
Shipwrecked
Leading up to the Mason-Dixon GNCC, there were several shootings in the USA, including the Uvalde, TX tragedy. At the time of recording, gun control debates were raging in Congress, the media and social media. How do we live in...
05.28.2022
Profane Fire
“Profane Fire” was the title of this weekend’s message at the John Penton GNCC. Leading to baptism, we studied Leviticus chapter 10 – which might be unusual since baptism isn’t mentioned anywhere in the Old Testament! However, Leviticus provides an...
04.11.2022
Jesus Cursed the Fig Tree
Palm Sunday message at the Camp Coker Bullet GNCC! During the week leading up to the crucifixion, Jesus was hungry, saw a fig tree, went to it for some figs but there were none. He said, “May no one ever...
03.29.2022
For Such a Time
Seems the world is in a tailspin! The typical response is “Ain’t got a chance!!” But there are a few people saying, “For such a time as this.” That term comes from the Book of Esther. She was put in...
03.15.2022
Armor of God
One of the COLDEST chapel services we’ve done! But people still came out! We discussed “The Armor of God” from Ephesians 6. Admittedly, my view of this passage has been skewed by cliché analogies. However, when digging in and REALLY...
03.07.2022
Living in the End Times
This meassage was delivered March 5, 2022 as Russia was actively invading Ukraine. The news captivated (and continues to captivate, at the time of this posting) the world. As a Christian, a couple questions come to mind: 1) What do...
02.22.2022
Lessons from Jeremiah
Too often, we want to insert our lives into the Bible! Yet, the Word of God is living and active - it can speak for itself and is applicable to us. Therefore, we need to insert the Bible into our...
12.23.2021
3 Kings of Orient
The story of the wisemen has been embellished and expanded over the years. That’s okay! The birth of the Savior is a story that should be told, retold and romanticized. But what is fact? What is fiction? And is there...
10.25.2021
Prophecy Puzzle Pieces
During the 2021 GNCC Race Season, we have studied a lot of prophecy! But how does it all look when the puzzle is put together? What can we learn? Join Chuck Lemaster at the Ironman GNCC race and find out...
10.09.2021
Gog Magog War
Ezekiel 38 is a little bit like reading a weather report. Imagine getting the bulletin, looking to the horizon and seeing the storm clouds you just read about! We don’t know everything, but there is enough in this passage that...
09.28.2021
The Rapture
Pre-trib, post-trib, mid-trib…all these weird names for when the rapture MIGHT happen! And what is the rapture, anyway? And “Tribulation?!” Lots to cover! Chuck puts all this in its proper, Biblical context at the Burr Oak GNCC Chapel service. The...
09.13.2021
Counter Cultural
Christians have been persecuted and killed since the 1st Century. Why? “Love your enemies, pray for those who persecute you.” Doesn’t seem too threatening! Yet, at the core, God’s principals are so counter-cultural they are indeed revolutionary! His Word -...
07.07.2021
The Con
Jesus warned that in the last days, there would be a falling away. We are certainnly seeing that in modern times. But what makes a person who professes Jesus is Lord to NOT maintain that core belief? That is the...
06.08.2021
The Backstory
Sometimes it is the backstory that makes the mainstory so incredible! Samuel was the greatest judge and prophet to ever guide ancient Israel. But he should not have been! His backstory should have ruined him. Yet God...God had a plan...
05.25.2021
John Penton GNCC Baptism 2021
John the Baptizer came on the scene baptising people for "repentance and forgiveness of sins." Then Jesus came along and wanted John to baptize him. Yet, Jesus had never sinned! So why did he need to be baptized? Afterward, he...
05.04.2021
Oil in the Lamp
Jesus talked about the End Times, Abomination of Desolation, putting oil in the lamp...unusual subjects! Yet, there is meaning and we are seeing "signs of the times" today. We should understand what He was talking about - and so...
04.19.2021
And Then the End Will Come
During this season, we’ve been studying some prophecies in the Old Testament and seeing how they came true. But what about future things yet to happen? When will the end actually come? Jesus’ disciples asked that very question. Although Matthew...
03.29.2021
Dry Bones
"And he said to me, 'Son of man, can these bones live?' And I answered, "O LORD God, you know.'" ~Ezekiel 37:3We looked at this passage at the Camp Coker Bullet GNCC. It's a fascinating passage! Even more so when...
03.15.2021
Leftover Stew
Chapel service from Washington, GA - The General GNCC. What do King Solomon, Hezekiah, Josiah, Abraham Lincoln, Ronald Reagan and the Civil War have in common? Tune in and find out! God has been faithful through the ages and His...
03.09.2021
Part 2: Demise of America
America is not Israel. However, Malachi explains, "I the LORD do not change." We can see how God worked in the past and have a greater understanding for what He is doing now. In Old Testament times, God gave warnings...
02.23.2021
Part 1: The Demise of Israel
2021 GNCC Chapel Round 1 Times are changing but God isn't! Malachi states, "I the LORD do not change." What God did in history gives us a clue for what he is doing now. This is Part 1 of a...
06.02.2020
Heaven
Speaking live at the Camp Coker GNCC on May 30, 2020, Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster expounds on the topic of "Heaven." There are many questions that the Bible does't directly address, but many answers, as well - especially when placed...

13. The Story Continues
The conclusion of a 13 part series - learning the Story of God as written in the Bible! Special guest, 2x World Grand Prix Champion, Trampas Parker, shares his story at the beginning and offers a powerful conclusion at the...
10.18.2019
12. The Rock
This is "Church at the Racetrack!" Hence, background noise and distractions - yet the message is clear: God had a plan from the beginning of time! Genesis 1 shows God creating mankind in His own image and the rest of...
10.09.2019
11. Snake on a Pole
"Through the Ages and the Pages" has been a fascinating journey through the Bible! Week 10 left off with Jesus being "The Savior of the World." But how? Nicodemus comes to Jesus with a question on his mind. But before...
10.09.2019
10. Savior of the World
"Through the Ages and the Pages" has been a journey through the Bible. It's a story of God's love for His special creation. He made a promise and although ALWAYS in jeopardy, that promise remained steadfast. Week 9 took the...
10.09.2019
9. The Blank Page
Week 9 of a 13 series "Through the Ages and the Pages" (Through the Bible) brings the audience to the blank page that divides the Old Testament and the New Testament. That page represents 400 years. Often referred to as...
