‘Respect’ Actor Marlon Wayans Says to ‘Trust God’ During Times of Trouble

August 17, 2021 by Staff

(CBN News) Actor Marlon Wayans discussed the important role that faith plays in our life as we face difficult times.

He portrays Ted White, Aretha Franklin’s first husband, in the new film “Respect” starring Jennifer Hudson.

During an interview with The Christian Post, Wayans noted that his character, as well as Franklin’s, lived with a dark side but “those things don’t define you” and “God gets you through” times of trouble.

“There is nothing that you can go through that you cannot get through,” he told CP. “If you have God on your heart and you’re in His hands, just know that He’s protecting you.”
