SpeakLife w/ Shane Franks

What if Hollywood is one of the greatest mission fields we’ve been overlooking?On this episode of SpeakLife with Shane Franks, Shane sits down with Dylan Novak, founder of Celebrity Evangelist, to hear the incredible story behind his calling to share the Gospel with celebrities. Dylan’s passion for evangelism began when he was just 13 years old after hearing that an actress he admired was an atheist. He prayed that someone would reach her with the Gospel—and God began showing Dylan that he could be that someone. What started with handing out Gospel tracts at autograph events eventually became a full-time ministry. Since 2015, Dylan has had opportunities to share the Gospel with more than 1,000 celebrities, while also preaching in churches, youth groups, camps, and schools. In this conversation, Dylan shares how God opened doors that seemed impossible, why he believes Hollywood is a forgotten mission field, and why the Church should be willing to go wherever God has placed people who need to hear about Jesus. This isn’t just a conversation about celebrities. It’s a challenge to every believer to get up, get out, and share the Gospel with the people God has placed in their path.Because every soul matters. And no mission field is off limits to Jesus.#speaklife #podcast #dylannovak #celebrityevangelist
