PROGRAM TITLE: "A CHANGE OF PLANS"
TARGET AUDIENCE: COLLEGE-AGE THROUGH ADULT
Devin seemingly reads spectators thoughts, demonstrates telekinesis, and predicts future outcomes; however, he claims no supernatural powers. God is the ultimate mind reader - He knows our words before we speak them (Psalm 139:4). And God can do better than telekinesis, He possesses all control over the physical world; after all, He created it (Genesis 1:1). And of course, God knows the future (Jeremiah 29:11).
If people think what Devin Henderson does is amazing, how much more should they be amazed by what God can do! In this entertaining and inspiring program, Devin performs his Mentalism Act and concludes the presentation with a message about God's greatness and His love.
Devin's message is simple. God knows everything about us, including our sinful thoughts and actions, yet He loves us. With that love comes an amazing plan for each of our lives. However, since our will is not always His will, at times we must allow God to give us "A Change of Plans." His plan will bring Him more glory than our plan ever will. Besides, when we make plans, God is ultimately the One who decides where those plans lead in the end, as evidenced in Proverbs 16:9 - "In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps."
You are an outstanding individual! I don’t believe I have ever seen anyone incorporate more completely his God-given talents to the furthering of His Kingdom! You are a blessing and encouragement to me and certainly our ministry! Thank you brother!!
Mark Brende, Director, Campus Crusade for Christ, Colorado University (Boulder, Colorado)
Our church thoroughly enjoyed Devin. He brings a good combination of humor and "how'd he do that" reactions. The way he wrapped up the evening was very good too, especially for those guests who either didn't know Christ or were on the fringe. I gladly recommend him to any church looking for a program with a combination of entertainment and spiritual challenge at the end.
Brad Fangman, Senior Pastor, Crossroads Christian Church
Devin has a wonderful presence - he transforms each event we invite him to into something magical and encouraging. What a fabulous testimony on how each of us can use our gifts for something bigger than ourselves.
Joe Passantino, Director of Youth Ministry, Church of the Ascension
I can't tell you how much our youth ministry has been blessed by Devin Henderson! We have used him in many different settings...whether it has been in front of our middle school students, high school students, or adult volunteers Devin has amazed us while at the same time challenging us all to a deeper walk with Jesus!
Nate Severson, Youth Minister, Hillcrest Covenant Church
Devin Henderson did an amazing job! He was able to blend a strong spiritual emphasis with some mind-boggling tricks! We still have students and parents wondering how he did some of the things he did! We would definitely have Devin back - it was an incredible show!

PROGRAM TITLE: "MAGIC VS. MIRACLES"
TARGET AUDIENCE: FAMILY
Water to Wine. Feeding the 5,000. Raising Lazarus from the dead...Devin performs these miracles right before the audience’s very eyes. Well, sort of. In this highly comical magic show, Devin imitates a few of Jesus' most famous miracles only to make it clear that his "miracles" are simply illusions. He then points out that when Christ performed these acts, they were illusions of no kind - they were true miracles. This program offers a picture of how powerful God is and how He demonstrated the greatest act of love through a miracle.
Devin performs 'Magic vs. Miracles' for churches, camps, Upward banquets, ministry outreach events, youth rallies, and conferences across the nation. Some churches are reluctant to use a magician as a guest speaker because of an apparent association of the art of magic with "Harry Potter-type" wizardry. However, this presentation is one that addresses that very concern. Devin makes it clear that he has no special powers – he even teaches the spectators a simple magic trick they can do.
This program has been designed so that the audience becomes lost in the "magic" before they are presented with any spiritual application. At the conclusion of the show, not only has the audience been entertained, they have been presented with truths about Christ's ministry and the Gospel message. People of all ages walk away with a smile, as well as a challenge to walk more closely with Christ or perhaps put their trust in Him for the very first time.
Devin has a very unique gift of connecting and communicating with audiences of all ages. If you’re looking for someone creative, fun, entertaining, and engaging, I would, without any reservation, highly recommend Devin Henderson...just be sure and hold on to your watch!
David Holmes, Children's Pastor, First Baptist Church of Orlando, Florida
'Magic vs. Miracles' not only entertained our kids, but also gave them a wonderful message of the miracle of Jesus Christ - His birth, His ministry and His resurrection! Our kids were captivated by the show and loved Devin! He is truly a gift, and I would recommend this show for kids of any age.
Michelle Tapko, Children's Ministry Team Administrator, Colonial Presbyterian Church
Devin's illusions are smooth and engaging for every age from 3 years to our senior adults! Therefore, his ability to engage the viewers only increases the level of listening when it comes time to talk about the difference between a miracle and a magic trick. Devin is professional and a breeze to work with. I'd invite him again in a heartbeat!
Rev. Margaret Tyler, KCD Children's Pastor, Kansas City District Church of the Nazarene
Devin helped the students see that although he is very skilled in the art of magic, no one can really perform Jesus' miracles. It was most impressive to see someone as talented as Devin demonstrate his respect and love for the Lord. Devin is the most polished performer we have had. His professionalism combined with his love for the Lord spoke volumes to our children. I highly recommend him.
Beverly Rhoden, Chapel Coordinator, Kansas City Christian School
'Magic vs. Miracles' was wonderful! Devin not only entertained the kids with magic, he taught them about the miracles that Jesus performed. Our kids and parents all walked away with the message of Christ being the one who can outdo any magic trick with real, life-changing miracles!
