The Voices of SOUL ON FIRE: DeVon Franklin (ep. 812)

This week, The Voices of SOUL ON FIRE series welcomes the actor who brings to life the unforgettable role of Nurse Roy: DeVon Franklin. DeVon is a producer of films like Miracles from Heaven and Breakthrough, a New York Times bestselling author, a preacher, and a motivational voice named by Variety as one of the "Top 10 Producers to Watch." Whether through books, movies, sermons, or his own acting, his mission has always been the same: to inspire, inform, and motivate. Today, DeVon shares candidly about growing up in the Bay Area, losing his father at a young age, and how film and faith became his lifelines of healing. He also opens up about what drew him to portray Nurse Roy in SOUL ON FIRE (the burn nurse who pushed a young John O'Leary to walk again), the real-life lessons of Roy's compassion and grit, and why telling this part of our story was both deeply personal and profoundly meaningful. My friends, if you or someone you love needs to be reminded that ordinary work, done with extraordinary love, can change the course of a life, this conversation is for you. You'll be encouraged to see pain not as the problem, but as a teacher pointing to healing. And you'll be inspired to embrace your own story with courage, faith, and the freedom to simply be.
