Paul Alexander

Pastor/Teacher 

Paul grew up in a Christian home and was converted under the preaching of God’s Word when he was 12 years old. He began to sense the internal call to preaching and pastoral ministry when he was in 8th grade. 

That internal call was confirmed through ministry experiences with his local church, student involvement with Campus Crusade for Christ at the University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill, and then as a Campus Crusade staff member at Michigan State University.  Paul left the staff of Campus Crusade in 1999 to attend Trinity Evangelical Divinity School where he  completed a Master of Divinity Degree in 2002. 

In 2002-2003, he served as a pastoral intern under Mark Dever at Capitol Hill Baptist Church in Washington, D.C. and remained there to co-author The Deliberate Church (Crossway, 2005) with Pastor Dever.

After a brief pastorate in Palatine, Illinois, Paul began attending Grace Community Bible Church, where senior pastor, David Sunday, also confirmed his pastoral and teaching gifts.  Paul answered God’s call to be the Pastor/Teacher at FVBC in April of 2006.

Paul and his wife Laurie were married in 2004 and currently reside in S. Elgin. God has blessed them with two children, Olivia and Braden.

Dan met his wife Toni, then Jewish, while doing his Masters work at California State University - Northridge. Dan was instrumental in leading Toni to Christ and they were married a year after her conversion.
