The Church of God International (CGI) traces its origins to the Church that Jesus founded in the early first century. Membership in the CGI consists of "called out ones" from around the world practicing Christianity as initiated by Jesus and furthered by the early apostles. The church begun by Jesus, the very one He promised would survive through the centuries, is alive and well. Today, disciples live the faith "once delivered to the saints" in this twenty-first century (Jude 3). They obey the same message taught by Jesus Christ, and they proclaim the same gospel taken to the world by the disciples. Members value the witness and teachings of Jesus Christ as the church's work.
The CGI home office is in Tyler, Texas. Incorporated in 1978, CGI has ministers and congregations scattered throughout the United States and Canada . We also have churches in Kenya, Jamaica, the Philippines, Australia, the United Kingdom and a growing number of countries around the world.

In this thought-provoking episode of Truth Unveiled, host Mike James tackles the long-debated question of predestination—does God truly determine every event and outcome? He explores how concepts like omniscience, sovereignty, and omnipotence factor into the discussion and examines key scriptures often used on both sides of the argument. Through biblical examples such as Abraham, Hezekiah, and Nineveh, Mike highlights how human free will can influence outcomes, challenging the idea that everything is pre-scripted. Tune in to discover a balanced, scripture-based look at whether God foreordains all things—or whether time, chance, and genuine choice also play a role.
This episode of Prove All Things features Carmine Russo as he explores the difference between natural emotions and conditioned feelings, especially fear. The discussion reveals how toxic fear can overwhelm rational thinking, shape our stories, and even lead to hatred and conflict—both personally and culturally. Russo connects these concepts to Christian life, showing how unresolved fear can undermine faith, relationships, and courage. The hosts highlight how learning to change our inner story, grounded in truth and love, can break the cycle of fear and help believers stand strong in difficult times.
In this episode, the hosts revisit the Third Commandment and quickly reveal that it’s far more profound than most people realize. What starts as a conversation about speech becomes an unexpected journey into how our words shape us, expose us, and align us with something greater. They tug on threads of Scripture, personal experience, and human behavior in ways that challenge comfortable assumptions. By the end, you’re left rethinking not just what you say—but why you say it, and what it reveals about your walk with God.

Dominionism is a theological and political belief system that wants to establish Christian governance based on biblical principles. It emphasizes the idea that Christians should exercise authority over all aspects of life, including politics, culture, and society.
This view is based on a specific interpretation of Genesis 1:28. Here is what the scripture says: "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, 'Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.'"
