Hollywood actor and Guardians of the Galaxy star Chris Pratt is pro-Jesus. In fact, he has gained a reputation as a Christian actor who openly talks about his faith. And that’s just fine with Chris!
Chris has a special “habit” we just love. He’s made it “his thing” to use his celebrity status as a platform to encourage others to love God.
“I want to thank God — I always do that when I’m up on a big platform in front of a bunch of young faces,” he told viewers at 2018 Kid’s Choice Awards. Chris went on to explain, “I say ‘I love God.’ That’s my thing. I love Him and you should too,”
Indeed, Chris often uses his time in the limelight to talk about his faith — from award shows to interviews and so on. It’s something he feels “called” to do.

"I think that there’s this narrative that exists out there that Hollywood is anti-Christian or anti-religious, but it’s just not the case. They are kind of not anti-anything," the actor tells The Associated Press.
