Hollywood Star Alan Ritchson Is Thrilled By The Recent Success Of Christian Films — ‘God Continually Shows Up In Our World’

Earlier this month, Alan Ritchson, known for his role in the Amazon series “Reacher”, celebrated the fact that people are hearing the name of Christ in movie theaters. This is a commendable act, especially given Hollywood’s reputation for being hostile toward traditional religious beliefs.

The film industry has long been a bastion of left-wing, secular ideologies, with traditional religious beliefs often mocked or dismissed. It is therefore refreshing to see actors like Alan Ritchson, who are not afraid to speak out about their faith and bring positive messages to audiences. While we often criticize Hollywood for opining about politics, it is sometimes nice to see other individuals serving as a counterbalance.

Indeed, in an interview promoting his new film ‘Ordinary Angels’, Ritchson stated that he is proud to be part of a film that shares a message of hope and faith.

“God continually shows up in our world in a way that kind of boggles our mind,” Ritchson said on a Zoom call with his fellow castmates, as previously reported by Christian Headlines. “Because we, for whatever reason, I think we continue to buy into the idea that … God chooses heroes to do His work. And it’s just never been the case. It’s the broken and the dysfunctional that God proves His power and strength through. And this a story of that, too. It’s important that we remember that those who maybe struggle to follow the rules, who don’t look like the perfect Christians, who are the broken, are the people that God has a funny way of expressing Himself through. And that story is very much told in Ordinary Angels.”

This is not the first time we have seen Hollywood stars publicly proclaim their faith in Christ. In recent years, we have seen celebrities like Chris Pratt and Mark Wahlberg speak openly about their religious beliefs. This is a positive trend, as it shows that there are still people in the entertainment industry who are unafraid to speak out about their faith and values.

Of course, there are always critics who will claim that these celebrities are simply using their faith for publicity or trying to force their beliefs on others. However, we should not be so quick to dismiss their actions as insincere. It takes a great deal of courage to stand up for one’s beliefs in an industry that is often hostile to traditional religious values.
