I am delighted that Dennis has received the Lord and is not ashamed to say so. God bless you my Brother.

It's nice to hear a celebrity talk about their faith. It's almost nonexistent in Hollywood.

@user-vm5ud4xw6n

Always loved that smile of his. It just took over his whole face! I’m glad he went back and reread the bible again and gave it a chance. It’s where he and all of us belong!

@lhead7226

In a time where so many people feel like they can't talk about their faith, it's refreshing to see see him not be afraid to talk about how his faith and how it helped him move past the demons in his life. His lesson can be one that could be an inspiration to others, no person is perfect and no one is without sin, but if your lost your faith in whatever higher power you believe in, can help center you and navigate you back to a better place in life.

@mygypsydancer

He still has the best smile ever.

God spoke to me and restored my faith. He literally saved me and I wouldn’t still be here if it wasn’t for his grace and love for me. I was addicted to sex, meth, crack, cigaretts, and alcohol and he took it all away. I live by faith now and I’m satisfied in the grace of God because grace is all the soul needs.

@laraoneal7284

Great to hear he’s a man of Faith today. Refreshing.

@terilong6889

I pray that his brother Randy also finds salvation and delivery from addiction

@deeort7361

I commend you for your honesty in talking about your faith. Something Hollywood never mentions nor cares to discuss. God continue to bless you.

@chriswilton9976

A good and humble man that deserves every ounce of joy in his life. I always think of my dad when I see Dennis.

@Lily_1010

I always liked Dennis Quaid as an actor, didn't know he was a musician. I would agree with him, The Right Stuff is a great movie. So glad he knows Jesus.
