Corbin Bernsen, best known for his Emmy-nominated portrayal of divorce attorney Arnie Becker on LA Law, had an epiphany on a recent visit to Hawaii. “We hear on the news such differences of opinions and this antagonism toward one another,” he tells Closer. “I was looking at the sunset. I just thought, ‘I wish all these people who are so bitter toward one another could just look at this and go, ‘Why? What are we doing?’ Because God has created this extraordinary gift — this planet — and it’s just amazing.”
As Corbin, 68, has evolved as a performer, director and writer, he’s begun to explore more of life’s big questions. His latest project, a six-part docuseries streaming on Pure Flix, is called Journey of Faith. It centers on a period of his life when a difficult movie filmed in an isolated location with limited resources helped strengthen his relationship with the divine.
So how did Journey of Faith come about?
In 2010, I made a movie called Rust. Journey of Faith is about the making of that film and me reestablishing, reaffirming, reconnecting with my faith. We filmed in the little town of Kipling, Saskatchewan, Canada. We had the good sense to film it all. Now, 10-odd years later, we put all that together for Journey of Faith.
So this really is a very personal project?
Yes. Sharing this tale of how I reestablished my faith after my father passed, it is a personal thing. But I’m not one of these actors who considers himself a Christian and will only do certain kinds of movies. I do everything. I believe that whatever path I am on is for a purpose.
