NEW YORK – Focused on the balance of “body,
mind and spirit,” renowned cardiothoracic surgeon and award-winning
media personality Dr. Oz launches Faithful Fridays, a new weekly
segment through February on his hit TV show, featuring New York
Times best-selling author, Hollywood producer and preacher DeVon
Franklin.
“In Faithful
Fridays, we’ll explore the important role that faith and
spirituality can play in our overall well-being,” Dr. Oz said.
“DeVon frequently joins us for popular and informative looks at
spiritual and personal development. This February, I’m thrilled
he’ll help us with Faithful Fridays on The Dr. Oz
Show.”
“As people of faith,
belief is an integral part of who we are,” Franklin said. “With
Faithful Fridays, we’ll talk about all the ways faith
contributes to living our best life possible.”
Dr. Oz will launch Faithful
Fridays in February as part of a 30 Days of Blessed Living
initiative.
“Faith and spirituality
don’t just live in a Sunday-sized compartment, or even weeklong just
within the walls of a church building,” Dr. Oz said. “It's a
thread through every aspect of life that makes life better—whether
someone attends church or not.”
From serving as the health
expert on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Dr. Mehmet Oz vaulted to
international acclaim with The Dr. Oz Show. Seen around the world
by millions daily, Dr. Oz helps viewers balance their lives physically,
mentally and spiritually. Still performing 100 cardiac surgeries each year,
Dr. Oz is a professor of surgery at Columbia University and directs the
Complementary Medicine Program at New York Presbyterian
Hospital.
Oprah Winfrey calls DeVon
Franklin "a bonafide dynamo . . . a different kind of spiritual teacher for
our times." As an award-winning Hollywood producer, best-selling
author, renowned preacher and motivational speaker, DeVon is a
multihyphenate fast becoming force in media. His commitment to lift the
masses through entertainment has made him a leading authority on faith,
spiritual wellness and personal development. Beliefnet named him one of the
"Most Influential Christians Under 40." DeVon recently produced the hit
film MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN and wrote the No. 2 New York Times
best-selling self-help book, The Wait, with his wife, actress
Meagan Good.
