Video: Battle in the Wilderness

This sermon was delivered by Rev. Walter Alexander, Pastor of Adult Ministries, Lake Avenue Church, Pasadena on Sunday, August 19, 2012. Born in Singapore to a believing family, Walter trusted Christ at the age of 12. From an early age his giftedness in creative arts led him to serve Christ as a worship leader and drama director in his local church while he was still a student. A passion for justice and truth led him to law school after which he worked as a corporate litigator in a high profile law firm in Singapore.

During this season as an attorney he met his lovely wife, Christine. Together they sensed a clear call from the Lord to prepare for and invest their lives in building up the church. This call brought them to the United States as a place to learn and to serve. Married in 2005, they moved to Texas and Walter eventually completed his graduate theological studies at Vanguard University in Costa Mesa, CA.

At Cottonwood Church in Los Alamitos and as a pastor at The Rock in Anaheim, Walter has demonstrated great skill in developing ministries that help equip God’s people to do the work of the ministry. He created and implemented internship programs and a church-based Bible college that have significant impacts today.
