Talking about the "things that matter most" on May 10
4:00 – Produced by Faith: Enjoy Real Success without Losing Your True Self
DeVon Franklin is the vice president of production for Columbia Pictures. DeVon says, “I know from my own experiences that if you will put your career in God’s hands and trust him, you can’t account for all the ways he will bless you. When you step out in faith, he will open doors and bring you opportunities that will surpass even your wildest expectations. . . . If I have learned anything, it’s this: to get where you want to go, you first have to become the person God wants you to be.” He is here to share how being bold about his Christian faith while being driven and ambitious has actually helped him to excel in a high-profile, fast-paced, competitive industry.

He says that the world’s 7 billionth human is a cause for celebration-- a victory over death. He is here to make his case.
