Clayton Perry: Other than the Bible, what books and materials would you recommend to young worshippers? Sometimes when I look at the Bible, it seems so hard to approach.

Rev. A. R. Bernard: It depends on the subject matter, but a very good book that will give you an idea of where I come from is Richard Niebuhr’s book, Christ in Culture. It’s a very good book to stimulate your mind.

Clayton Perry: Thanks, Reverend Bernard. I’ll be sure to look for that book. With that, I will also recommend your book as well.

About the Christian Cultural Center and Teaching Ministry of A. R. Bernard

Founded in 1978 by Reverend A. R. Bernard, Sr. and his wife Karen, the Christian Cultural Center has grown from that small beginning to a current membership of over 28,000. The Christian Cultural Center is composed of people from diverse cultural backgrounds, experiences, and walks of life - all of who have made a public confession of their identification with Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.

All members believe the scriptures of the Old and New Testament, commonly known as the Holy Bible, to be the sole source of faith and the absolute rule of conduct for human life. They have determined to build their lives on Truth; the firmest and most stable of any foundation.

Reverend Bernard is the host of two weekly television broadcasts: New York Now, a weekly public affairs cable show, and A. R. Bernard, which airs on Sunday mornings. Both shows air on the Trinity Broadcasting Network.  adio broadcasts of Bernard’s sermons can also be heard on WRKS (KISS) FM, Sirius Satellite Radio and WMCA. Podcasts of New York Now, A. R. Bernard New Magazine Show and the Teaching Ministry of Dr. A. R. Bernard are available on iTunes.
