Listen to Kevis’s Art as Worship interview on Empower Radio.

A member of St. Catherine of Siena Church, Kevis serves on the leadership team of Siena Pictures. Kevis’ twin passions are film and faith, and through his work in the film industry, he is able to combine the two for the benefit of those who wish to learn more about the word and will of God.

Kevis comments about balancing a full-time job, newborn twins and the activities necessary for this feature film project, “The grace of God gets me through each day. It’s definitely very demanding with everything that I have to do. I put it into perspective and prioritize — first God, then my family and then work.”

He continues, “It’s a big challenge, but everything is in God’s hands. He works His magic and miracles and we keep going forward.”

Kevis and his wife Stacy reside in Acworth with their newly born twin boys.
