“That peace that you know you’re loved and valued is something that keeps me incredibly grounded, incredibly focused,” she explained. “Quite honestly, I don’t see it as this separate thing, this add-on thing. My faith is just a part of who I am and what I do.”

Keeping the main thing, the main thing throughout.”

Amidst a Hollywood scene often flooded with anti-Christian sentiments, it’s certainly refreshing to hear these words of wisdom from a daughter of the King who knows her worth isn’t dictated by the big screen.
