On June 24th, Hollywood megastar Denzel Washington recalled something you rarely if ever hear mentioned by Tinseltown royalty: the moment he dedicated his life to Jesus.

As reported by The Daily Wire, in an Instagram Live session with Pastor A.R. Bernard of the Christian Culture Center, Denzel told the minister he was frightened when he surrendered to Christ amid being filled with the Holy Spirit.

There aren’t many like Denzel. Despite being one of the biggest stars in the world, the lifelong advocate for the Boys and Girls Club has been married to the same woman since 1983. //

And among cinema’s elite, few are the voices in agreement with his faith.

But there are some — like Chris Pratt, who gave the following Thank You speech upon receiving his 2018 MTV Generation Award:

“God is real. God loves you. God wants the best for you. Believe that. I do. … Learn to pray. It’s easy, and it’s so good for your soul. … Nobody is perfect. People are gonna tell you you’re perfect just the way you are. You’re not. You are imperfect. You always will be. But there is a powerful force that designed you that way. And if you’re willing to accept that, you will have grace. And grace is a gift. And like the freedom that we enjoy in this country, that grace was paid for by somebody else’s blood. Do not forget it.”
