Hello World,

We have to wait until August for OWN’s “Greenleaf” to return, but you don’t have to wait until then to see at least one of our favorite stars of “Greenleaf!” GregAlan Williams, who portrays Mac “the Molester” McCready and archnemesis to Grace Greenleaf (I’m still thinking about their showdown in the Mid-Season Finale), will appear in the “A Question of Faith” session on Saturday from 6-8 p.m. as a part of the International Faith and Family Film Festival, which starts THIS Thursday through Saturday! But he is not the only star who will be in the house!

In fact, as an aspiring actor, screenwriter, or director, imagine if you had an exclusive opportunity to glean insights from Hollywood’s elite. Imagine if you had a chance to attend faith-based film screenings led by a panel of entertainment’s most sought-after talent. The International Faith and Family Film Festival (IFFFF), founded by Bishop T.D. Jakes, will afford aspiring faith-based creatives a chance to attend film screenings; network with Hollywood’s elite; and learn more about film production and direction during live Q&A sessions, among other topics. During this engaging four-day IFFFF experience, expect to be inspired and transformed!

Whether you’re passionate about cinematography or music composition, you definitely want to maximize this opportunity to glean new insights, as well as expand your professional film and entertainment network. From Hollywood’s leading screenwriters, music composers, actors, to directors, producers, and executives, the talent represented at the International Faith and Family Film Festival is sure to make Dallas (Omni Hotel ) one of the most coveted cities for entertainment this summer!
