Ahhhh Chris Pratt.  What a guy.  Chris is one of America’s favorite actors, he is funny, good looking, and a Christian!!  That last attribute is one that many people probably don’t know about Chris, but it is definitely one of the most important things.  In class we watched a clip of Chris Pratt on a very liberal talk show, and how he openly talked about his faith, scripture, and church.  Aside from that, there are also many other things that Chris has been open about.

In 2017 Chris won an award at the Teen Choice Awards, and while he was up on stage he said “I would not be here with the ease and grace I have in my heart without my lord and savior, Jesus Christ.”  He was said to have helped on of his friends who was addicted to meth become a pastor.  He also had to openly defend his church because of an accusation another celebrity made.

With all of this to say, Chris Pratt is very open about his faith.  When we see him as a silly character on TV we never really think about who he is in “real life.”  He is ultimately making a stand for all Christians, and puts his fame in jeopardy for something he believes in, and I think that is a lesson we can all learn from and something we can incorporate it into our personal lives
