In a lighthearted Instagram post, actor Chris Pratt offered fans a humorous yet heartfelt look into what matters most to him. Listing essentials like “oxygen, organs, blood, gravity, Jesus, food and water,” he also mentioned his love for the NFL, bass fishing, his glam team, and most importantly, his wife and kids. His wife, Katherine Schwarzenegger, jokingly teased him about the order in which he listed these things, saying, “Can’t wait for all the things you’re going to have to do to make up for the order of this list!”
Fatherhood, Faith and Family Values Shape Chris Pratt’s Journey and Strengthen His Beliefs
Pratt and Schwarzenegger are parents to three children: Lyla, Eloise, and Ford. He also shares a son, Jack, from his previous marriage. Chris is known not only for his acting but also for his outspoken support of family values and Christianity. He often shares his beliefs with the public, even during major award shows. In 2018, at the Kids Choice Awards, he famously encouraged young viewers to love God, saying, “I love Him, and you should too.”

Pratt’s faith deepened significantly in 2012, during a life-changing experience with his son Jack’s premature birth. Jack was born seven weeks early and faced numerous medical complications. During this crisis, Pratt turned to God in desperation, making a heartfelt plea for his son’s survival. When Jack pulled through, Pratt said it was the moment that his faith was solidified. He declared that from then on, he would use his public platform to honor God.
From Lukewarm Promises to Lasting Faith: Pratt’s Spiritual Transformation Over the Years
Before this pivotal moment, Pratt admitted his faith was mostly transactional. He described his earlier relationship with God as one where he would only seek divine help when he was in trouble. His moments of spiritual awakening were spread across years—from childhood to adulthood—marked by empty promises and spiritual inconsistency. However, he now sees the flaws of that approach and has embraced a more consistent, heartfelt walk with God.
Despite his A-list status in Hollywood, Pratt remains openly committed to his Christian beliefs. In an industry often seen as secular, he stands out for his boldness in sharing his faith and values. Whether it’s through public speeches or social media, Pratt continues to highlight the importance of God and family in his life, demonstrating that fame hasn’t shaken his spiritual foundation.
