Earlier this week, the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 actor shared on Instagram a snapshot of his Hollywood Star in the making, along with this Bible verse:
“The LORD has done great things for us, and we are filled with joy”-Psalm 126:3.
Pratt’s journey to Christ has been filled with many unconventional turns. In an interview earlier this year with Vanity Fair, the former salesman discussed how he believes everything in life is perfectly planned by God.
The Passengers actor shared the story of when he was “saved” many years ago. Saying that, “I was sitting outside a grocery store—we’d convinced someone to go in and buy us beer. This is Maui. And a guy named Henry came up and recognized something in me that needed to be saved. He asked what I was doing that night, and I was honest. I said, ‘My friend’s inside buying me alcohol.’ ‘You going to go party?’ he asked. ‘Yeah.’ ‘Drink and do drugs? Meet girls, fornication?’ I was like, ‘I hope so.’ I was charmed by this guy, don’t know why. He was an Asian dude, maybe Hawaiian, in his 40s. It should’ve made me nervous but didn’t. I said, ‘Why are you asking?’ He said, ‘Jesus told me to talk to you . . .’ At that moment I was like, I think I have to go with this guy. He took me to church. Over the next few days I surprised my friends by declaring that I was going to change my life.”
In response to his happy moment, fans congratulated him.
