Remember too, that Ronald Reagan kept his faith quietly. He was not loud or pushy with his faith, instead, leading by example, living his faith. In fact, I did not realize he was a Christian until years after his Presidency. That said, it comes from the fact that most Canadian politicians always seemed to be ‘Christian’ only at Easter and Christmas services. From that perspective, pols who attended church were merely paying lip service to Christ, including Americans. Prime examples being BJ Klintoon and O’Venal.
From what I’ve read of Denzel Washington, he is well known in Hollywierd for his faith and he will not take certain parts. In some cases, he has been known to make changes to scripts where the character is too evil unless, of course, the character receives his due at the end of the movie.
Very good actor. Cafeteria Christian at best.
Actually, it all came together when we discovered it was the Bible!
All right!
Liked him in “Flight”-very good movie about redemption and owning up to your misdeeds.
Just watched him in the recent new rental, “The Equalizer”. (based on the 80’s tv show) It was ok.
He was good in “Fallen”, a genuinely creepy supernatural horror movie.
Thanks for the ping.
The Book of Eli has to be top of my Denzel faves.
He was pretty cute in The Pelican Brief, too!
Yep, remember when he said he “ walked by faith, not by sight?”
Great advice.

Another dead give-away - the “book” was in Braille!
Definitely one of the best looking in Hollywood too. He can come preach to me any time.
Glad he is taking a stand. It takes guts.
We need to be asking, why can Christians no longer practice their lifestyle?????? As shops and products turn MORE Halal, which everyone understands is necessary for Muslims, why can’t Christians have the same respect????
Love his acting - he always seemed to be decent from the inside and now I understand why - when one accepts the holy spirit in his heart, it shows outwardly and people (especially believers) can sense it.
I took no pleasure in saying what I said.
I do not watch modern movies, but I did see him in one were he played a Football coach, wasn`t a bad movie.
Remember the Titans
Great movie, worth watching over and over.
that`s it
