The Media Missionary
Her entire adult life, Tami DeVine has pointed people in newsrooms she's worked in to Jesus Christ, and she has used media and entertainment to point others to Jesus. Now, as CEO of Divine Family Entertainment, Tami continues her work as a Media Missionary.
Tami has more than 25-years' experience in TV News, media and entertainment. Her passion is to inspire women through her riveting life story as an abandoned orphan in Sierra Leone, West Africa. After white American missionaries adopted her, Tami became a US citizen, was given a great education and the opportunity to live out the dreams and adventures God placed on her heart. Women leave motivated, equipped, and understanding that "no matter what" God sees them, loves them and has a plan for their lives. Tami is a sought-after speaker for Women's Events, Conferences, Retreats and Bible Studies.
