What is A.R. Bernard's Net Worth?

A.R. Bernard is an American spiritual leader and life coach and who has a net worth of $5 million. A.R. Bernard was born August 20, 1953. He is the CEO of Christian Cultural Center (CCC) located in Brooklyn, New York, a ministry and nonprofit which boasts over 33,000 members and resides on an 11.5-acre campus.

Prior to becoming a Born Again Christian in January 1975, Bernard was a part of the Muslim American movement. In 1978, he and his wife Karen started a bible study in the kitchen of their Brooklyn railroad apartment. Bernard left his 10-year banking career in 1979 to go into ministry full-time.

As the bible study group grew, so did the need for a facility. The Bernards took their savings and rented a small storefront in the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn and later that year Household of Faith Ministries was incorporated. In 1988, Household of Faith purchased and renovated an abandoned Brooklyn supermarket into a 1000-seat sanctuary, complete with administrative offices and a bookstore. Household of Faith was renamed Christian Life Center and formally moved into its property in June of 1989 with a membership of 625.
