Alex Gonzalez

Host Team & Worship Director

Hi, I’m Alex. I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California, and for many years, I searched for truth through different religious and spiritual experiences. I grew up in a broken home, and the weight of domestic dysfunction caused me to withdraw from anything that looked like religion. In that search for escape and identity, I was pulled into the wrong crowd and began to be exposed to substances and destructive influences that only deepened the emptiness I was trying to fill.

In the midst of that brokenness, I entered into an unhealthy relationship that, although it didn’t last, became part of how God shaped my life. Out of that season, I was blessed with two incredible children—an older daughter and son—with whom I remain closely connected today.

But everything changed when I encountered Jesus Christ personally. Through His grace, I came to know Him not just as an idea, but as my Savior, Redeemer, and Friend.

Once I surrendered my life to Him, the Lord began a deep work in me—healing old wounds, transforming destructive patterns, and gently leading me into a new way of life rooted in His Word and His love. I was discipled by faithful believers in San Bernardino, California, who helped me grow in my understanding of Scripture, and those early foundations continue to shape my life and ministry today.

Eventually, my family and I followed God’s prompting and moved to Princeton, Texas. Soon after arriving, we found a church family where we were welcomed with warmth and love. It was clear to us that God had led us to a place where we could grow, serve, thrive in community, and be on mission for the gospel.

I’m now honored to serve as the Worship & Host Director here at CityBridge. I get to help lead others into meaningful encounters with Jesus—whether it’s through music, prayer, or a simple, welcoming smile on a Sunday morning. I believe the presence of God transforms lives, and I love creating space for people to experience His goodness, truth, and grace.

I’ve been married to my incredible wife, Armida, for over two decades, and together we have two amazing daughters. Along with my older daughter and son, we are a blended family that God has held together with love and grace. I cherish time with my family, especially quiet moments outdoors and long bike rides that help us slow down and connect.

It’s a joy to be part of what God is doing here. My hope is that every person who walks through our doors or joins us in worship would come to know the freedom, healing, and purpose found only in Jesus Christ.
