About

“We love because he first loved us.” – 1 John 4:19

Revd. Charlie Styles currently leads OCCA’s team, after spending 12 years in church leadership.  He loves teaching the Bible and is responsible for setting the direction and culture of OCCA.

Coming from the local church, Charlie focusses on how OCCA can support and equip the Church to engage and confidently respond to the world’s ‘big questions.’ He is never happier than when helping people grasp life-changing spiritual truth for the first time.

Charlie is married to Sophie and considers his three wonderful children the most important responsibility God has given him. Aware of his own faults, he seeks to live a life of repentance and faith, daily dependent on God’s grace and kindness.  They live in Burford, Oxfordshire, where Charlie serves as the Minister for Evangelism at their local church.

If Charlie is coming to speak at your event, here is a link to some publicity material.

In our current cultural moment with all its confusion and questions, we want to equip you to consider and respond to these challenges the world is facing today. https://www.theocca.org/cfc2024

How Do I Prove Truth?

In this interview, Mark Lanier, a prominent lawyer, shares the intersections of his faith and his professional career as a trial lawyer. Mark has had significant legal achievements, including landmark cases that have brought about changes in public health and safety, such as the removal of talcum from baby powders due to asbestos contamination and his involvement in litigation related to the opioid crisis in America. He dives into how the principles of justice and truth-seeking in the courtroom resonate with his religious beliefs and offers a unique perspective on themes of living a life of authenticity, the intrinsic value of human beings, and finding evidence that leads to the truth even when the truth is uncomfortable.
