Book Club Pick - Produced by Faith - Devon Franklin

Okay, before Oprah stumbled upon Author, Devon Franklin we were already reading and telling anyone who would listen about his book! (Sorry Oprah, you got seconds - smile). This is a must have for any Brunch Lady library.  Produced by Faith is abundant with spiritual and business wisdom and clearly divinely inspired.  You can be a Christian and work in a secular profession.  Enter, Devon Franklin a minister and Hollywood Producer.  He provides timely sage advice on how to set goals, thrive and be successful in "the world" without compromising faith.  Mr. Franklin not only talks the talk but he walks the walk. Produced by faith is motivational and provides an intimate look at the various seasons of our destiny.  It is a nuanced combination of career and spiritual savvy principles in preparation for the journey.




  • God's distribution plan puts us in position so that others can be blessed.
  • God will pull assets from all different areas of your life and career and put them together to create one part of your story.
  • God (doesn't) put us into production to get things done fast, but to get them done well.
  • God might keep you in development for ten years until you have just the right mix of skills an intuition to excel in production.
  • The process that starts in development continues in production-shaping your character, refining your mind, and testing your faith until you become someone with the influence, standing, and strength to be a beacon of light to Christians and non-Christians alike.
  • (We) must do our jobs in a way that makes God's presence apparent to others.
  • If you serve money only, you will drop your principles in a heartbeat to chase wealth.
  • Money should be in our minds but, we must see the submission of God as the means by which we achieve prosperity.
  • Don't cast position as the lead in our story....if (we) only pursue position, we limit what God can do for us.
