Last week, I shared this tweet on my social media platforms: “Learn to serve your family and others because you love them and want to glorify God in everything you do. In this way, you’ll never expect to *feel* appreciated by others since this is self-pity which is satanic. Keep your eyes upon Christ and what He commands of you. His blessings are abundant!” Of course, there were women who were angry with this as some are with everything I…
He was raised in a home with an abusive father. Now, his ministry is to stop abuse from happening which is honorable BUT in doing so, he has watered down the meaning of submission to mean honor. God would have used the word honor instead of submission if he only meant honor. He does command wives to reverence their husbands in Ephesians 5:33, but He also commands them to submit to and obey their husbands multiple times. This man came…
Written By Ken Alexander We live in perilous times where far too many of the recent generation of children is getting to adulthood without ever learning true respect. Our society is loaded with self-seeking disrespectful young people who hardly respect themselves, let alone others. Where does such lack of self-esteem and respect come from? From poor parenting and a serious cultural breakdown of the family and sexual morality. Just look around you and you will see disrespect all over the…
Written by Ken Here’s an email I received from a man recently: “I just want to thank you and your wife for being models of what marriage and relationships are supposed to be. I emailed your wife and for obvious reasons she said you’re more qualified to answer a man’s questions. My wife is six months pregnant, and we’re both very excited. I just wonder if you have any advice on fatherhood? As the head of house I know my…
Written By Ken Alexander If you are like most of us, your life’s schedule is very full and overflowing. There is always something tugging at you that needs to be done, and many of us feel a twinge of guilt when we just sit and relax, read a book, or veg in front of the TV. Yet, we seem to know how important taking time for ourselves is, so “What gets left undone?” A wise, old law professor started his…
Written By Ken Alexander Anxiety and panic attacks are awful and debilitating. I thank God that although I have had great stress and anxiety, He helped me cure most of it about 15 years ago. As I look back on my life, I see so many ways that God has led me. Even as I feel I am in control and moving myself forward with my own plans, yet God is working through my life and circumstances to grow me…
Written By Ken If you are like us, you are seeing and hearing so many rumors emanating from both sides of the political spectrum. We can no longer trust our Media after they have proven themselves left wing outlets spreading so many lies about Trump and Russian collusion over many years. To some degree, many were just caught in a baseless conspiracy theory started by one campaign trying to dig up dirt on another, and it spiraled out of control….
Written by Ken As we reflect over the past year and our forty years of marriage, we cannot be more thankful with what God has done and will continue to do with our lives. We recognize that apart from His grace and mercy, we could have easily divorced or followed along with the rushing river of culture, yet God gave us His mercy to help us stay faithful to His Word and calling on our lives. We have four wonderful…
Written By Ken Alexander With the erosion of American morals goes the American dream of a true and responsible democracy. Although both Mom and Dad each play a great influence on the moral fiber and character of a child, nothing will create a stronger young man or woman than a child raised in a home where mother and father join together to invest their lives into raising up the next generation. Unfortunately, we now have a nation of far too…
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…
