Mark Wahlberg on sex, drugs & Jesus

Published: March 23rd, 2005

"It all comes down to Jesus," announces Mark Wahlberg (left). Referring to his recent role in the movie I Heart Huckabees the Hollywood actor goes on: "It is all about love and how we all are connected. Coming from the inner city where there wasn't much hope, where there was a lot of violence and drugs, I can relate to the other side, where it seemed like nothing was connected, nothing mattered. It was all dark and painful."
'I woke up in prison... It was God that brought me back.'
"I had those feelings when I strayed from my faith, got caught up in the street life, drugs, and crime and it wasn't until I woke up in prison that I said, Oh God, I need to straighten my life out. It was God that brought me back and put everything else in perspective."
