Team Faith Podcast

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! In...

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 be...

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? Shou...

The GNCC Racing Community lost a racer at Round 2 of the 2016 Season. At Round 3, the GNCC Chapel Service was a memorial and dedication to Ty Kesten. The audio track opens with Team Faith Chaplain, Chuck Lemaster, being interviewed at the track. Tim Cotter, Race Director/MX Sports, speaks to the group and Chuck closes out with a message, "What do you do with tragedy? Is there hope?" The...

This is a continuation of "Is God asleep?" It's also quite personal because as I related in the last message, "I will not fear if the electricity gets shut off." In between that message and this one...the electricity got shut off! But God is so faithful, and this is a message of praise and hope for anyone else who is struggling! The audio is a bit scratchy because I'm...

This was a personal one for me - I'm Chuck Lemaster with Team Faith and I get to deliver the chapel messages on the GNCC series. For over 5 years, I've been "full-time" in the ministry; using dirt bikes to share the love of Jesus Christ. However, at the time I delivered this message, I was in a crisis. Funding had run out and I was no longer keeping my head above water. This me...

Seems there are so many distractions in life - and worse yet, God seems to do things in other people's lives that he DOESN'T do in yours. Or maybe He just doesn't seem to care about the pain and suffering that is all around us. Sometimes it seems SIN is the way to go. How do you handle that? How does a Supreme Court decision affect me as an individual? Team Faith's Chuck Lemast...

"The Christian faith is not based on the Bible." Say what?! Take a listen as Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster expands on that statement at the Snowshoe GNCC in 2015. People abandon the faith because of 2 things: Crazy Christians and they can't make sense of some things in the Bible. Yet - early Believers didn't even HAVE a Bible - what we know as the "New Testament" w...

This is a follow up to the 5/24/2015 message, "Why is it BAD to be a Christian?" Being a Follower of Jesus is ILLEGAL in approximately 50 countries around the globe. Why? And if that is true, then wouldn't it be easier to just not be a Christian? Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster talks about this at the John Penton GNCC in 2015. There must be a compelling reason...

Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster explores the question, "Why is it bad to be a Christian?" It is illegal in certain countries. ISIS is killing people for being a follower of Christ. Even in America on Memorial Day when we celebrate those who died to give us freedom, we see Christians being put under pressure to change their ideology. If being a "Christian" is to follow Jesus Ch...

Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster shares a personal story of coming back from the brink of bankruptcy and being able to enter ministry full-time. The message challenges listeners to go all-in for Jesus Christ and to put God first. Chuck admits it is a message he did not want to speak since it deals with finances...which is always personal! But, by sharing his own story, he connects with the audienc...

Fox declined to run a commercial on Superbowl XLV deeming it as "too controversial." The premise was to drive people to www.lookup316.com. Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster takes his listeners to John 3:16 and explores the full conversation Jesus had with Nicodemus. It's much more than a verse! It goes all the way back to when people were being bitten and killed by snakes out in the...

Does God answer prayer? If so, why do some prayers get answers and not others? Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster explores these relevant questions at the Big Buck GNCC.

Through chattering teeth, Chuck Lemaster (with Team Faith Racing Ministries) looks at the final days of Jesus' life at the Steele Creek GNCC...one of the coldest on record! He combines the 4 Gospel stories to give a thorough review of the days and times...and focuses in on Judas's betrayal. Having been with Jesus, seen signs and miracles, how could Judas do such a thing? The answer actua...

That's probably a personal interpretation, but Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster relates a story that answers the question, "What is faith?" We know God can...but will he? Follow along as Chuck shares from The General GNCC in Aonia Pass, GA.

Seems a simple question...but there are so many answers! Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster explores a simple sentence in the book of Acts, "And they were first called Christians in Antioch." What does this have to do with modern day Christianity? Spoken at the GNCC Season opener in Florida, March 2015.

Daniel 12:4 says that at the end of time, people will be busier than ever, and knowledge will increase. Does that mean this is the end?! People have been saying that for thousands of years! How could today be any different from when the Pope said the world would end in 1000AD? Listen in as Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster discusses this subject at the St. Clairesville, OH GNCC. His main point is t...

It's evolution vs creation. Seems like an old debate! That's why this message isn't about an argument, but rather an encouragement! There is purpose to life. There's a way to know it. Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster tackled this subject at the Somerset PA GNCC race. You are invited to listen along!

Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster spoke at the Unadilla GNCC race. He shared a message God placed on his heart about Hell and our eternal destiny. Admittedly, it wasn't a comfortable subject - but God instructed his prophet Ezekiel to warn people...and if he didn't, God would hold HIM accountable! Chuck took no chances and pointedly shared the truth with the GNCC community.

Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster spoke at a church in Wellsville, NY. Subscribers may recognize it as part of a message preached in 2013 on the GNCC series. The title, "A Chunk of Pavement" references Chuck holding up a piece of asphalt and talking about the streets in heaven being paved with gold! Chuck also relates experiences in Egypt when Team Faith traveled there for a freestyle sho...

Bad things - "shiznitty things" happen in life! Not everything "happens for a reason." Take Joseph for example. BAD things happened to him and the root cause was sin...James tells us in the New Testament that God doesn't sin, nor does he cause us to sin. However, God is big enough to redeem sinful things. Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster walks through the life of Joseph as...

God gave a promise, and then Jacob manipulated life in order to obtain that promise. Is that how it works? Do we get God's best by forcing God to give it? We know better than that...so what was going on? Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster discusses this at the Mountaineer Run GNCC chapel service.

John the Baptizer preached repentance and forgiveness of sins and then baptized people. Jesus never sinned! So why did he need to be baptized? Team Faith's Chuck Lemaster explores this question at the Loretta Lynn's GNCC 2014. It's an unusual baptism service because most of the message is about the temptation of Christ. How is that relevant to baptism?
