Three Powerful Works of Faith by Pastor Alvin Frank, M.Div.
“He will give you hope and grant you the ability to overcome the challenges that life
throws at you.”
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to
prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
JEREMIAH 29:11
About the Author
Born in Trinidad and Tobago, on the smaller of the two islands, Pastor Frank moved to Trinidad at seventeen to attend school — a week following the death of his father, who passed away at the early age of fifty-nine. After his studies and some years working, he immigrated to Toronto, Canada.
In Toronto, he began attending The Stone Church, where he has worshipped to this day. He studied Engineering Technology at Ryerson University (now TMU), and spent most of his working career in engineering at Ontario’s largest power generation company.
When the opportunity to retire early arrived, he was invited to join the pastoral staff at his church — opening the door to Tyndale Seminary, where he pursued Biblical and Pastoral Studies and graduated with a Master of Divinity degree in 2010. He served as Discipleship & Care Pastor for seventeen years until his retirement in 2022.
"I trust that this book will encourage you to trust God, regardless of what you may be going through, because He has promised never to leave or forsake you."
Pastor Frank is married to his lovely wife Glenda, and they have two daughters, Karen and Cathy. He is passionate about the care of people and continues to encourage God’s children through his writing.
Reflections & Writings
Ongoing reflections, devotional thoughts, and spiritual encouragement from Pastor Alvin
Frank — written to meet you wherever you are in your journey.
Samson’s lowest point was not the end of his
story — and neither is yours. There is
something profound about the valleys of life
that draws us to an honesty with God we
rarely find on the mountaintop…
From the garden of Eden to the empty tomb,
God has always been in the business of
making beautiful things from broken ones.
When Isaiah spoke of beauty from ashes, it
was not poetry — it was prophecy…
We are tempted to seek God only in the
seasons that feel fruitful. But the winter of the
soul — quiet, still, seemingly barren — is
often where the deepest roots form. In every
season, He is faithful…
Life is full of choices. Every day, people face the struggle between doing what is right and following their desires. This battle between flesh and spirit is at the heart of Samson in the Valley of Sorek by Alvin Frank. It is a challenge that every person faces, and understanding it can help us grow stronger.
This morning, I want to share a devotional thought with you on seeing life from God’s Perspective
The devotional today:
“Seeing Life from a Better Vantage Point”
Attending a parade can be quite an exciting adventure especially when you were little.
The day Canadians had marked on their calendars finally came, and so, those who were prepared with their glasses, specially suited for the event, were able to witness the total solar eclipse.
As the Moon passed between the Sun and Earth, the eclipse brought darkness to various parts across the country for several minutes.
