Actor Will Smith recently spoke candidly about his spiritual journey and quest for deeper meaning during a podcast conversation with Christian rapper Lecrae.
In the interview, as reported by Premier Christian News, Smith reflected on the inner emptiness he experienced despite his wealth and fame, revealing that learning to trust both himself and God was a crucial part of his path to fulfillment.
“It is such a rare gift to reach the end of the material world…to reach the end of money where you can buy anything you want. Whereas buying things used to scratch an itch… to have had all the sex you want to have. How many more number-one movies do I need? How many more Grammys? It’s a rare gift to get to the end of the material world where only God is left,” Will told the rapper on his “Deep End With Lecrae” podcast.
According to Christian Today, Smith added that he hopes that everyone else would realize that nothing satisfies the human soul no matter what they try to pursue as a means of fulfillment.
“There’s no country you can go to. There’s no relationship you can start. No new job that’s going to do it… You get to the end of it. It’s excruciating, but I would wish that on everybody. I wish everybody could get everything they want to see that it doesn’t satisfy.
Although Smith is not a professing Christian, he was raised in a Christian household and was particularly raised Baptist. Nowadays, he describes his religion as “love” and has previously explored a variety of religious traditions.
