  • Good stuff!

    Some incredible insights into the Word of God. Easily understood, yet enough meat on the bone for anyone to walk away having learned.

    I’ve really enjoyed listening to Bro Bernard discuss the many topics here on the podcast. No matter your affiliation, he discusses each topic with a clear understanding of the Word of God with clarity and wisdom. I highly suggest this podcast to any believer and Apostolic Pentecostal that wants a concise statement of what we believe. It also makes a great study tool and launch point for discussions with your family.

  • Best Podcast!

    The explanations Dr.Bernard give over what some see as very complicated issues make them easy to understand and he backs everything with scripture. Love this!

  • I simply love this podcast.

    All of the questions of the next generations answered. In the age of information, young people have questions. The best way to make lifelong believers is to create believers who understand what they believe in. Thank you, DDKB! P.S. I would love to hear what Dr. Bernard thinks about Islam and how we can reconcile some of their beliefs with the Bible/historical evidence.
