This past spring, I had a burning desire within me to be in a musical. Soon after, I was blessed for that desire to come true, playing the role of Curly in āOklahoma!ā It was such a blast to do my second straight show with a southern accent! This experience challenged me musically and grew me spiritually as I enjoyed the rollercoaster journey that defines theatre. I was also very grateful to get close to such a talented cast and grow together. Thank you, cast, for your support, accountability, and encouragement. Hours of driving and seven shows later, the musical was a success. Thank you to @newenglandpublictheatre for the opportunity! š

AWAKE is out now on Apple Music and Spotify!!! š„Iām very blessed to have co-written this song with @jasoncrossproductions and @blakexcav and to be featured on the first verse of the song 26 seconds in! Give it a listen š
Given whatās happening in the world, the release of this song couldnāt be more timely. We originally wrote this song as an encouragement to the church to not just go through the motions but actually FEEL the presence of the Living God. The song is based on the verse Ephesians 5:14 which says āAwake, O sleeper, and arise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.ā
There is darkness and violence in the world. Lots of it. But Iām telling yāall, there is light. A bright, powerful, glorious light. And that light is Jesus Christ. Over the past four years, Iāve experienced that light in my life and my heart has been filled with endless love that I canāt find anywhere else. He is alive and wants to dwell in you. Invite Him into your heart and your life will be changed forever.
āThe light shines in the darkness and the darkness has not overcome itā John 1:5
With grace,
Alex
P.S. thank you @free_christian church!!!

Officially introducing Alex Bensley as Gog
Gog is the cold, calculating heart of the operation. His mind is as sharp as a blade, and his ability to manipulate finances and logistics is unmatched. While his physical presence is often understated, his role in the syndicate is undeniable - Gog understands the value of control through resources. His genius lies in his ability to remain in the background pulling strings with quiet precision. However, his endgame isnāt just about wealth - itās about securina the future for himself and his comrades. But when the moment arrives for a deeper gamble, Gog may find that his own cold logic could turn against him, revealing weaknesses he never anticipated.

Being on stage transcends reality. There is something so personal, so special about it that stirs and awakens my soul. Playing Lysander in Midsummer Nightās Dream in Cartersville, Georgia was one of the best experiences of my life. Sometimes, the greatest blessings youāll ever receive are unexpected, so always remember to keep your eyes, ears, and heart open to the open door that awaits you. Thank you to the amazing cast and crew for the fun times we had on stage and off. You are all special humans beings and I am eternally grateful to have worked with you. This was some of the most fun Iāve had in my life. Beyond blessed, thank you Lord. Photo credit: Liz Lychenheim, Dave Lychenheim, Chris Dahl, Glen Clark, Darren Conley
