Ice Cream Dad!
Ice Cream Dad! is a delightfully illustrated read-aloud book featuring a dad whose Saturday tradition is taking his family to get yummy frozen treats as a way to spend time together. They use this opportunity to bond and have fun. Each Saturday, Dad, Mom, and the children pick different treats and happily pile into the family car for a treat filled trip. Finally, after getting their delicious ice cream treats, the entire family sits down and enjoys their treats together. Ice Cream Dad uses frozen treats, and the journey to get them, to bond with his children and create positive memories.
"The Love of a Father"
Faith Principles of the Power of a Father's Love
This insightful and thought-provoking book illustrates how a father’s love is forgiving, everlasting, unconditional...and often misunderstood, using the Christian faith and the Bible to show fathers love as deeply as mothers, just differently.

About Pastor ken
REV. DR. KEN GORDON JR., or Pastor Ken, as he is called by his members, is a pastor, business executive, husband, father, and community leader, whose entire life has been dedicated to the service of others. A graduate of The Citadel - The Military College of South Carolina, he is a highly sought-after speaker on leadership, public service, civil rights, youth mentoring, and community engagement.
In 2016, Pastor Ken and his wife, Leslie, founded the House of Light Church in
Burlington, NJ where they established a Divorce and an Outreach Ministry. After
much prayer, God led Pastor Ken to develop the Dads of Faith Ministry. The
couple, now living in Birmingham, AL, are continuing God’s work for Couples,
Divorcees , Youth, and those who have "hearts hurts". Their church, the
House of Light Church (HOLA) is focused on showing love, serving
others, and letting their light shine through their good works.
In 2018, Pastor Ken and Leslie launched the "Commitments with Ken+Leslie" show. This weekly two-hour show aired for two-years on WXJC Radio FM 101.1 ~ AM 850 Birmingham/Huntsville AL, and focused on providing hope, healing and help to those who are divorced or going through divorce and those who are in fruitful or dysfunctional relationships. Stay tuned for Pastor Ken and Sis Leslie's next media venture!
Pastor Ken and Leslie have four "adulting" children, two beautiful grandchildren, and live in an empty nest, with their chocolate Cockapoo.
The ministry
Ephesians 6:4 reads, "And, ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath; but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord".
Men who have children are commanded by the Word of God to bring up their children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. One cannot bring up their children in this manner if they are not living in this same way.
The responsibility of a Dad is to be the protector, provider and priest for his children and their mother. As Dads, we are called to protect our families from ourselves, as well as from the world. As Dads, we are called to provide love, as much as we provide food, shelter, encouragement and direction. As Dads, it is also our responsibility to lead our family to the Lord. While Dads cannot make our families accept the Lord, we can lead them to Christ, so the path is familiar.
At the House of Light Church, men and dads come together to pray for each other, fellowship and study God's word to understand how to be a better father and an awesome Dad.
Through fellowship, open exchange and sharing, we allow iron to sharpen iron so we become the men and fathers God is calling us to become.
