As a Catholic actor, Mark Wahlberg wants to encourage others to encounter God.
“I think, hopefully, all the work that I’m doing outside and with the platform that I now have is to continue to do my part and encourage people to have a relationship — and work harder to pursue a relationship — with God,” the 52-year-old star told Our Sunday Visitor.
