Moments, values, and principles in times of trials and success define our leadership. The values and purpose we hold, guide our thinking and actions. These determine how we approach relationships, change, and the challenges we face. The more power and influence we have, the greater the stakes. Learn how to navigate through our cultural minefield for God’s glory as you listen to this candid conversation, a part of our Transforming Leadership series, between Doug and Dr. A.R. Bernard, Founding Senior Pastor of Christian Cultural Center in Brooklyn, New York. Dr. Bernard is a premier thought leader in faith and culture and has been featured on Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, NBC, CBS, BET, TBN, and Daystar TV.

Bernard has collaborated with faith leaders around the world building strong partnerships advocating for religious freedom and social justice. While serving as a mentor to many pastors, Bernard also counsels senior leadership in business, entertainment, and politics.

What does success look like to the believer? Faith and the workplace are not exclusive of one another and God desires we be successful in both. However, there are guardrails to put in place before the success comes! In this episode, John Beckett, Chairman and former President R.W. Beckett Corporation joins Doug Stringer to discuss faith, ministry, and the workplace; reminding us that God can amplify the small things for His glory!

May we all pray, this Pentecost weekend and every day, for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit. We need the manifest presence of the Lord! Come, Holy Spirit, come!
