For younger audiences Corbin Bernsen is known as retired police force detective Henry Spencer in the United states of america'south hit evidence, "Psych," just to those a lilliputian older he'll forever be the lovable Arnie Becker in "50.A. Police." In the late 1980s and early '90s the ruggedly handsome actor appeared on more than 50 magazine covers and hosted "Saturday Night Alive." The 58-twelvemonth-onetime actor spoke to Trick 411 about his career, matrimony and faith.

Play tricks 411: Besides "Psych" what else accept you got going on?
Bernsen: I have a tech project on the side called Powsumer. I had this vision where say 50 people want a TV at this price and what we do is bring the seller to that group of people. I accept a production company chosen Home Theater Films which makes religion based films.

FOX 411: Are you lot born once again?
Bernsen: No, that's not where I put myself. I consider myself to be Christian. It's the kind of a thing that I struggle with. I have religion, I believe in God. I wait at Christ as this magnificent figure. I don't get to the evangelical side of it I suppose. Information technology's difficult to describe because this is of late, really trying to express what I am and what a lot of people are, people of faith.

I don't want to make it audio similar I'm different, information technology'south just co-ordinate to some guidelines I guess I'm different. It'south a shame because you feel similar you lot're not part of those other people. All I know is I march to my own drummer these days and true to myself. There's a lot of people who desire faith in their life, and I'k more than about that than all of it.

People who I would like to bring into the discussion. I don't want everyone to become annihilation and I am certainly on a journey of discovery only information technology's having a conversation almost it. These days where there's so much in the world that'southward not working, somehow we've used faith/organized religion throughout history, it's sort of been a mucilage for guild and community, it's something that's made things work, non bulldoze things apart, I feel this demand to celebrate that for the expert of what it is.

There'south an assumption if you lot have whatever faith you vote this manner, you lot vote that style or you're this or you're admittedly a bourgeois and those simply aren't all true. There are very cool people out there, very relevant people that accept faith in their lives and people who desire faith and like I say are afraid to enter the chat, that's all I intendance near entering the chat.

I have four sons who are basically growing up in a world where they don't believe in sh*t and I know that's not practiced either. I'thou non saying you take to believe in God or Christ or any of that stuff, just come up in the conversation for a bit. It's enkindling. You don't have to believe like I do, certainly partake in the conversation.

I have practiced conversations with wonderful atheist friends and I observe that to be fulfilling whether they become to a identify that I am or not that'due south not my job just I do notice it, I say to be far more interesting than talking about Lindsay Lohan, you know what I mean? Philosophically it's interesting to me, I merely happen to believe, my personal beliefs are, you know, I believe God, I believe in that mystery of what God is, and I identify it sort of, I place him if you will, I mean every time they come up up with a discovery of something that'due south not bad, at present before that, I proceed on kind of putting God in all of that. I'll never go to the end. None of usa will ever achieve that place, you know. Yous can't, that'south the whole thing of having organized religion.

So I find it to be an enlightening matter, it'southward ultimately, oddly enough I'm 58 years old, it's almost like the 60'southward when we talked nigh love and customs and peace and prosperity, I don't know, there is a movement. I see at that place is people who desire to come into the conversation and then there's people who've been a function of it forever. U2. If you lot listen to a U2 song. It's probably the case of what everyone uses of where information technology tin really be. Poetically and not sort of the hardcore fashion.

I tell my friends I've always believed in God and Christ, I don't know, I judge possibly I don't authorize because I didn't practise it once more.

I'g also nigh family and community. Ultimately that's what my films are about. I don't mean sweet kid movies necessarily, I mean movies that talk about family and community equally sort of structural building blocks for a strong society, again nearly philosophical social technology if you will. I retrieve we need to re-explore what family and community are. Part of this whole divisiveness in this country, you lot're on ane side and I'yard on this side, and you forget we're all working towards a common proficient.

FOX 411: Back in the belatedly '80s you lot were the "It" male child for a while.
Bernsen: For a while, you're starting to make me experience like a has-been! Really "L.A. Law" has been a chip of a approval and a curse. Start of all it was a very prestigious show that had a lot of intellect and I was the pretty male child. I've had to battle that my whole career, "Oh y'all were the face guy. You didn't really have to human action, y'all simply had to wear the right suits." I had to battle that.

FOX 411: Y'all've been married a long time [to British actress Amanda Pays]. What's the secret?
Bernsen: It's been 25 years this November. Friendship absolutely, offset and foremost. All the other stuff like sex, it comes and goes in waves. Afterwards 2 or three years the honeymoon is over. The thing that keeps you going when things relax a fleck is the friendship. When you celebrate that friendship that'south when it reignites the passion. I don't take a bunch of mates. I don't accept a homo cave. My wife and I, we are each other's all-time friend.

I'thousand very fortunate that I have a gorgeous wife that I'm still completely attracted to and love to become naked with at every possible moment.

Play a joke on 411: Being in a house of men has your wife ever entered a bathroom without the toilet seat upwardly?
Bernsen: She loves information technology. We have this unique beautiful thing.

Fox 411: I know! I'yard just talking about toilet seats!
Bernsen: I put it downwards. Mind yous I tried to get a urinal in our bath when we built our firm.

Fox 411: That's a dandy thought.
Bernsen: I call back it would be not bad for the middle of the night piss. I don't know why more people don't do that.
