Chris Pratt is no stranger to criticism. The actor has been in the public eye for years, and he has been the target of both praise and scorn. However, one thing that Pratt has never shied away from is his faith.
Pratt is a devout Christian, and he has spoken openly about his faith in the past. In a recent interview with Page Six, Pratt talked about how he leans on his faith when he is facing criticism.
“I’m a Christian. I believe that Jesus loves me, and I try to live my life by the example he set,” Pratt said. “When I’m feeling down or discouraged, I just think about how he was treated, and it puts things in perspective.”
Pratt is referring to the fact that Jesus was also criticized and persecuted during his lifetime. In fact, Jesus was eventually crucified by the Roman government.
Pratt said that he finds comfort in knowing that he is not alone in facing criticism. “I know that I’m not the only one who has been criticized for their beliefs,” Pratt said. “Jesus was criticized, too. And he was perfect. So if I can be criticized for being imperfect, then I can handle it.”
He used scripture to underline his beliefs, saying “If I was of this world, they would love me just like that but as it is, I’ve chosen out of this world. That’s John 15:18 through 20.”
“That’s the way it is, nothing new, 2,000 years ago they hated him, too,” he said of Jesus.
Pratt’s words are a reminder that it is okay to be criticized. In fact, it is often a sign that you are doing something right. If you are standing up for what you believe in, then you are likely to be met with opposition. But that does not mean that you should give up.
