Full bio

Alex Kocman is Director of Communications and Engagement for ABWE, a church-planting missions agency with about 1,000 missionaries serving in more than 90 countries.

He is the author of Ordered to Love: Recovering the Order of Affections from the Home to the Ends of the Earth (Founders Press, 2026), which recovers the historic Christian teaching on the order of love and traces how rightly ordered love runs from the home to the ends of the earth. He also wrote Striving for the Faith: A Journey through Philippians for Life on Mission (Founders Press, 2024) and, with Chad Vegas, Missions by the Book: How Theology and Missions Walk Together (Founders Press, 2021).

He co-hosts The Missions Show with Scott Dunford and hosts The World View, a show on theology, culture, and missions. He previously hosted Cloud of Witnesses, a podcast on the faithfulness of veteran missionaries. His writing has appeared in American Reformer, Christ Over All, The Gospel Coalition, For the Church, 9Marks, Biblical Missiology, Founders Ministries, and ABWE’s Message magazine.

Alex holds an M.A. in Communication Studies: Media and a B.S. in Biblical Studies from Liberty University, where he served as an online evangelism and apologetics instructor from 2012 to 2014. He lives in York, Pennsylvania, with his wife and five children, and serves at Citylight Church in Dover, Pennsylvania.

Interview topics

Ordered to Love and the Christian life

  • The order of love. How Christians can love family, church, and nation without losing zeal for the nations.
  • Theology and missions. Why sound doctrine drives faithful missions practice.
  • Philippians and life on mission. Paul's letter as a book about the church's mission.

Church and theology

  • The church growth movement. When the push for rapid expansion crowds out real spiritual transformation.
  • Prosperity and poverty. Why neither health-and-wealth promises nor the supposed virtue of poverty matches Scripture.
  • Mercy ministry in missions. Why good works such as digging wells should accompany evangelism, not replace it.

Race, culture, and immigration

  • Race and the church. Should multi-ethnic churches be the goal, and how should our evangelism reflect the answer?
  • Immigration and the mission field. What the Bible says about nations and borders, including the claim that “Jesus was an immigrant.”
  • Missions and progressive ideology. How missionary work stays anchored to the gospel amid shifting cultural pressures.

Gender and sexuality

  • Sexuality and gender identity. How the church should respond as gender identity is redefined, especially among young people.
  • Masculinity and missions. Why the missionary task needs courageous, sacrificial men.

Politics and society

  • Politics as a symptom. The spiritual and cultural crisis beneath America's political divisions.
  • The politics of missions. Why proclaiming Christ's lordship among the nations carries public implications.
  • Persecution by proxy. Subtle policies and cultural pressures against Christians, and how to respond.

Missions strategy

  • Missions abroad or at home. Why send missionaries overseas when our own nation is in need?
  • The local church and the agency. Who bears responsibility for missions, and what agencies should and shouldn't do.
  • The pro-life cause worldwide. How Christians engage the fight against abortion globally, and why it matters for missions.
