Mark Wahlberg has a lot to be thankful for this holiday season.
In an interview with Fox News Digital, the "Daddy's Home" star shared that he is thankful for his continued "relationship with God" and that he looks forward to diving deeper into his purpose on Earth.
"An opportunity to continue to pursue a purpose-filled life," Wahlberg responded when asked what he is thankful for. "A relationship with God and a purpose-filled life. And I know that all of these things are part of the process to bring people together and connect people again and to find out what my purpose really is, and why He's put me in this position and given me this platform and what to do with it."
The actor has been vocal about his faith in the past, telling Fox News Digital at the opening of his Las Vegas restaurant, Fletcha, "I have to attribute all my success to my faith."

?"I know that all of these things are part of the process to bring people together and connect people again and to find out what my purpose really is, and why He's put me in this position and given me this platform and what to do with it."?
During a February 2023 appearance on the "Today" show, Wahlberg elaborated on how his faith has "allowed" him to become a better version of himself.
"It's a balance. I don't wanna jam it down anybody's throat, but I do not deny my faith. That's an even bigger sin," he explained. "You know, it's not popular in my industry, but, you know, I cannot deny my faith. It's important for me to share that with people."
Aside from his faith, Wahlberg is also known for his intense fitness routine, previously telling Fox News Digital in 2022, he would wake up at 2:30 in the morning for a two-hour workout from 3:30 to 5:30 AM.
