Written By Ken We live very much in a Tit-for-Tat world and this same mentality now permeates our churches. Although nothing could be further from the heart of the gospel of Christ than conditional love and behaviors, still far too many “Christian” couples are playing the tit-for-tat game trying to ensure “fairness” in their marriages. If you are all about ensuring that everything is fair for others, I get it and am with you to some extent. But if you…
Recently, a woman wrote the following comment on my Facebook page. I read it to my husband, Ken, and he immediately began telling me how I should respond. He had a lot to say so I asked him to make a blog post about it so he did. “Is there a reason you only have four children, transformed wife? If I’m correct based on what I’ve believed to have seen on your page, you only have four, right? If there…
Written by Ken Last night, my Dad went to be with Jesus in his home in Paris, France with family around him, and I could not be there for this sorrowful, yet joyous occasion. My Dad, Harold Alexander, lead an extraordinary life. At fourteen years old, he was in the hospital for two weeks where he almost died of mononucleosis. I believe it was then that he told the Lord that if He would save him he would give his…
Written By Ken As the Corona virus whacks this country and the rest of world, I cannot help but think about the parallels between it and Christian marriages. Christian marriages appear to be suffering from multiple flu-like symptoms which find their way to the comment section of this ministry. We wish we had a cure for these particular marriage viruses, but because there appears to be no cure in sight, the only hope is to try and protect the ministry…
Written By Ken About every six to twelve months, I sense the need to try and set the record straight concerning the Alexanders. I know many of you think we should ignore the haters, which we do most often, but it just seems right to speak out every once in a while for clarity’s sake. I tweeted my first tweet the other night after getting a message from a friend that the trolls were attacking a Twitter account that they…
Written by Ken Far too many throw their love away. I am not talking about having sex before marriage which has nothing to do at all with love but selfishness. No, true love is when you make a commitment to share true life for a lifetime with another. True love is the commitment to seek the best interest in another in good times and in bad. True love is a deep and abiding intimacy where you know and are known…
Written By Ken Dear Pastor, Unfortunately, the church cannot be the salt of the earth if you keep sugar coating God’s Word. This has become so apparent to me over the past few months as we see and hear of more and more pastors and evangelical leaders falling into the slippery slide of culture and dragging their unlearned church along with them. Coming to a church near you is a teaching time that will make any mature believer’s spirit jump…
Written By Ken and Lori We wanted Ted Cruz or Marco Rubio to win the primary. We never thought President Trump would win the way he mocked people and the things he said. However, when he did win the primary, we voted for him because we were hoping he would be a much better president than Hillary, even though we weren’t sure he was a Republican. We both like President Trump as our president a lot. Many Christians still can’t…
Written By Ken Alexander It is heartbreaking each time I hear of a good Christian man being divorced by his Christian wife. It seems that there is an epidemic of Christian wives being dissatisfied in their marriages or being the cause of blowing up their marriages with selfishness. I venture to say that this blog has saved many marriages already and will continue to do so, Lord willing, as it gets to the heart of the disease of feminism and…
Written By Ken During the Judge Kavanaugh’s hearings, the Judge gave an interesting phrase “snatching ambiguity from clarity” as he discussed textualism, the theory that the interpretation of the law is based primarily on the ordinary meaning of the text when it was written. He was referencing those who want to find every reason why what the law actually says is not what it actually means. Unfortunately, it seems that we have the same issue in the Church today where…
