Publisher's summary

Secular and spiritual success are not opposites. To have one, you need the other.

You can be wildly successful without losing your faith. In fact, your secular success will strengthen your faith if you allow it. Too often we believe that success in secular environments contradicts the core principles of faith, but the opposite is true: Your faith was designed to thrive in the secular world and to transform it as a result. You may never experience the true fulfillment you were created for until you pursue the secular ambitions in your heart.

New York Times best-selling author DeVon Franklin knows this to be true. In The Hollywood Commandments, the prominent Hollywood producer and spiritual success coach reveals 10 life-changing lessons picked up from his over-20-year career in the entertainment business. You won't learn these lessons in the church, yet they will help you achieve an amazing life and thriving career that glorifies God. The Hollywood Commandments will help you:

  • Identify how to use what makes you unique to propel your career.
  • Overcome fear and build the courage to pursue new opportunities waiting for you.
  • Gain the confidence to make important life decisions with greater peace and clarity.
  • Negotiate the life and career advancement you deserve.

No, you don't have to work in Hollywood for this audiobook to work for you; these "commandments" apply to every walk of life! If you are stuck, looking for the secrets to advance your career, or have a feeling there's more to life, this audiobook is for you.

So on point

I am going through a trial in my life, this book came thru right on time, it’s has given me hope encouragement and faith to carry on from day to day. For me it is better support than talking with a friend, this is a great listen and will be a daily constant reminder of who, I am working to become, only wish this book had came out sooner. Going to use frequently as a reminder when I feel down or needing to make decisions, my son is 12 hopefully he can read or listen to this audio to help guide and stare his daily and future decisions making

A-MA-ZING! Will be reading over and over!


This book could not have come at a better time and I consider it a blueprint for success. I’m grateful for the intentionality behind every chapter and I will becoming back to it as a reference as I continue in my own journey. DeVon Franklin is a great teacher and it was awesome to have him reading the book because you can feel the heart and purpose behind every word. Each concept includes relevant examples and thorough explanations of what it means and looks like to walk these principles out in real life. Not only am I inspired, but I feel equipped with practical tools for applying my faith and bold belief in God to my career. So grateful! MUST read!

Energetic...in a good way

This book was really good. What I appreciated mostly about this book was the energy that Devon had while reading/recording this audio version. The content alone was intriguing, informative, and insightful. But his energy made the concepts "pop" as I listened. This man really is an inspiration and I am actually putting into practice the concepts and advice he suggested. I'm more conscious of my character as I climb my way up. I was enlightened by this book, inspired and motivated to prepare for when God really does answer my career prayers. Thank you Mr. Devon. Keep glowing Sir!
