Film producer, author and motivational speaker DeVon Franklin has helped bring several inspirational films to global audiences, including this year’s “Miracles From Heaven” and 2014’s “Heaven is For Real.” He recently spoke with Cheryl Wetzstein, manager of special sections at The Washington Times, about the future of faith-based filmmaking.
This interview was edited for space and clarity.
Q: With successes under your belt, and thinking about the inspirations for these kinds of films, what do you see coming down the pike?
I go back to the Bible and look at the stories in the Bible, and I see how those stories have endured the test of time. And what that tells me is that people are never tired of stories of faith and stories that can inspire them on a personal level and a spiritual level.
So for me, when I look at the future, it’s amazing and incredible at the opportunities that will be afforded us to be able to make more stories that can reach people and inspire people in their faith.
