Chris Pratt's advice to next generation: believe that 'God is real'
by Eno Adeogun
Actor Chris Pratt instructed the next generation to believe that "God is real" during his acceptance speech for winning the MTV 'Generation' award.
After thanking his parents, siblings and son Jack, the Avengers: Infinity War star said: "They only gave me a couple of minutes so I'm gonna cut to the chase. I'm gonna speak to you, the next generation.
"I accept the responsibility as your elder, so listen up! This is what I call nine rules from Chris Pratt Generation Award Winner."
While most of the points listed were humorous, including the best way to give dogs medicine, he reflected on his Christian faith on the sixth rule.
"God is real. God loves you. God wants the best for you, believe that - I do," he said.
The 38-year-old actor is known to be vocal about his Christian faith.
