When we launched the podcast in 2017, we knew that we eventually wanted to interview Dr. David Bernard, the UPCI General Superintendent. We have both read and referenced many of his writings over the years and his books played an important role in Bryce's journey of faith.
When we began to discuss evangelism and discipleship, we knew this was the perfect time to reach out. Thankfully, Bro. Bernard was gracious enough to join us for what turned out to be an incredible episode. We cover a lot of ground in this episode but our main concern is with evangelism and discipleship. We discuss the incredible growth of the church in Austin, TX under Bro. Bernard's leadership, as well as the importance of intentional multicultural outreach.
Be sure to pick up a copy of Dr. Bernard's incredible book, "Reaching Austin". Available wherever you buy books or directly from Pentecostal Publishing House: https://pentecostalpublishing.com/products/reaching-austin
