In addition to his entertainment industry pursuits, DeVon is also a preacher, a motivational speaker, and the author of Produced By Faith, a how-to-guide about pursuing your career without compromising your faith. He's appeared on CNN, Fox News, NBC and was a featured guest on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday on the Oprah Winfrey Network. He has also been featured in Essence, Ebony, Jet, and Black Enterprise magazines, among many others.
