Bernard D. Reeves is a husband, father, minister, public speaker and songwriter with over twenty-five years of leadership experience. He is a firm believer that words possess the power to build or break, wound or heal. As an elder in ministry, Bernard has spent decades witnessing how different types of communication shapes relationships and determines destiny. Driven by faith and a passion for truth, he writes to help readers rediscover the spiritual weight of their words.
In his debut book, Unruly Little Thing: The Power of Life and Death Is in the Tongue, Bernard blends biblical wisdom with practical insight. He introduces the B.U.I.L.D. principle—Bless, Uplift, Inspire, Love, and Discipline with grace—as a roadmap for transforming both speech and heart. Known for his relatable teaching style, Bernard connects timeless truth with everyday life experiences. Whether mentoring young professionals, composing music, or speaking to large or small groups of people about purpose and communication, he encourages others to use their words as instruments of healing and hope.
Bernard currently lives in North Texas with his family, where he uses his voice and music to inspire and uplift. His prayer is that each reader would be stirred by faith, anchored in grace, and awakened to the life-giving power of the tongue.
