Proud to live boldly in faith with you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chris Pratt, and his newly engaged fiance Katherine Schwarzeneger, have become one of Hollywood&#8217;s favorite couples, all while sharing out their love of Christ.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019re going to want a religious wedding,\u201d an insider told People Magazine. \u201cI know that Chris does, and I assume that she does, too. God is going to be a part of this marriage.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The fact that Schwarzenegger doesn\u2019t shy away from discussing her beliefs openly with others is one of the reasons that Pratt was drawn to her. Schwarzenegger and Pratt started in the 2018.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s constantly around other people who have no faith or are apologetic about it, but not her,\u201d the source added. \u201cShe is willing to talk about it to anyone who will listen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schwarzenegger\u2019s mother, Maria Shriver, congratulated the couple writing on Pratt\u2019s Instagram post: \u201cCongratulations to two loving kind caring thoughtful Spiritual people we are so happy for you you are blessed as is everyone who knows you yes let\u2019s go.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fans have known from the start that the couple keeps God at the center of their relationship. They have been spotted attending church together in LA on many occasions. In a birthday tribute to his grilfriend in December, Pratt wrote: \u201cthrilled God put you in my life.\u201d The picture featured Schwarzenegger holding a wooden sign etched with the words of 1 Timothy 1:14: \u201cGrace mixed with faith and love poured over me and into me. And all because of Jesus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Schwarzenegger was raised in a Catholic home, while Pratt didn&#8217;t dedicate himself to Jesus until he was a bit older. Pratt admittedly has made his fair share of mistakes thoughtout his faith journey, but uses that to encourage other Christian fans that may be struggling.<\/p>\n<p>In previous interview with the Associated Press he said, &#8220;That kind of message, it might not be for everybody. But there is a group of people for whom that message is designed. And nothing files my soul more than to think that maybe some kid watching that would say, \u2018Hey, I\u2019ve been thinking about praying.
