Wanda B. Campbell

Bernard Boulton has written a story about three men who seek to be whole in God through the spiritual leadership of a pastor. This gripping story is titled DO YOU WANNA BE MADE WHOLE?  Bernard is the pastor of New Mine Creek Church in southern Virginia. He is married to his wife of eighteen years, Vantoria and they are the parents of their son, Bernard Quincy. Bernard’s hobbies include reading, traveling and supporting his hometown team the Cleveland Cavaliers and Lebron James.

 

Bernard, what inspired you to write a novel about men?

My passion for seeing men succeed and overcome the many experiences of life was the inspiration for this story. And I wanted to introduce a male story in an industry that is dominated by women. 

Did your pastoral experience influence Do You Wanna Be Made Whole?

It did to a point. The main character is a pastor and one of the other characters is a preacher. I think that my life in the ministry and my history, coming from generations of preachers had great influence on this story.

What has been your greatest challenge since becoming an author?

Fear.  I was afraid this story wouldn’t be good enough. Would people buy it? Would the story impact people and would they enjoy it? Would I fail?       

What’s next for Bernard Boulton?

I have written a nonfiction inspirational work on God’s favor that I want to release in Spring or Summer of 2010. A sequel to Do You Wanna Be Made Whole is also in the works.
