At Round 1 of the 2018 GNCC season, Chuck opened by explaining who he is, who Team Faith is, and why we do what we do! He shares his own story and the story of Team Faith as he walks the audience through II Timothy 3:16-4:5. These are Paul's last words to his protege, he knows he is going to die and charges Timothy with, "Preach the Word." A tradition that continues to this day at churches and even racetracks around the world!

The shooting in Las Vegas dominates our news feed. There is unimaginable evil in this world. Moments before the shooting, Americans were arguing over the flag and National Anthem. Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster presents Truth from God's Word that helps put these issues in perspective for the Christian listener. The challenge many people face is to stand up for what's right while "turning the other cheek" as Jesus taught. It's an interesting listen and will help sift through the many messages we hear as we try to put God first in our lives and in our culture.

Have you ever felt that your prayers bounced off the ceiling? That God wasn't paying attention? Or maybe He forgot about you? Chuck tackles this question by looking at the 400 years of silence in between the writing of the Old Testament and the New. Chuck originally preached this message at the Snowshoe GNCC, 2017. This recording is from Chuck preaching the same message at this home church, Calvary Chapel in Hixson, TN just a few weeks later.

This is a recording of the Tribute Service done at Steele Creek GNCC for Chris and Cody Gragg. Although sound quality is rough, listeners can still hear what was said that evening. Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster spoke about the peace Jesus gives and how we can have hope even in tragedy. Chris and Cody left be3hind a great legacy and one of Cody's friends said it best; "It comes back to Jesus y'all!"

Moments before chapel started at the Sparta GA GNCC, Team Faith Pit Pastor Chuck Lemaster received official word that Chris and Cody Gragg (father and son) were killed in an auto accident on the way to race. This message spontaneously wrestles with the question, "Why do bad things happen to good people?" It's a broken world, but there is hope in Jesus Christ.

What does it mean to be blessed? We think of fame and fortune, that God is smiling down on us. But Mary was "blessed" and yet had none of that! Instead of a room at the Hilton Suites, she was in a barn, surrounded by...you-know-what! And what of our own idea of "blessed?" Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster relates to being covered in poo and yet being blessed at the same time! Interesting story - take a listen from the Florida GNCC 2017!

Chuck finished the 2016 GNCC season by talking about prophecy and apologetics. The message starts off talking about Joel Rosenberg's book, "The Last Days" which was written about 9/11 BEFORE 9/11 actually happened! How did the author know?! Chuck moves from prophecy and into Creation and evolution and then discusses "manuscript preservation" - relating how the Bible has been passed down over the centuries. It all comes together at the end to beg the question, "If God is this real, then what's stopping you from believing?!"

Claude Lemaster was a decorated WWII vet, loyal husband, loving father...and my grandfather! He passed on August 24, 2016. This message is a tribute to him. He showed the love of Jesus in real, practical ways and is a living example for many of us in this day of unrest. ~Chuck Lemaster

Jesus said some difficult things! Many try to say he was "just a good teacher," but some of the things he said were very strange and completely the opposite of what it takes to get people to follow him! One thing was, "Eat my flesh and drink my blood!" Chuck Lemaster explored the statement while at the Camp Coker Bullet GNCC in South Carolina.

Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster challenges his listeners to not take something at face-value. Instead, know why you believe what you believe. Our culture has made compelling arguments for "There is no God" and "This is all by chance and evolution." If you believe that - why? If you believe there is a God - what do these scientific arguments mean to you? Are they reliable? Should they shake your faith? Or are there things that we haven't been told?
