In an earlier interview from April 2022, Wahlberg made it clear that he continues to treat his four children with wife Rhea Durham with the same attitude of “share but don’t push.”
As a guest narrator and paid ambassador for the Catholic prayer app Hallow, Wahlberg went into further detail when he sat down with Savannah to talk about the Lenten season and the fasting periods that are a part of it.
Wahlberg claimed that there are numerous unique aspects to fasting. The most important thing to keep in mind is that there are alternate solutions if one has eating issues. God knows what he wants people to cut themselves off from. Everyone has gone through situations that have caused them to feel guilty or less than they should. Therefore, it’s about having the ability to distance yourself from those things and focus on healthy routines rather than bad ones. Fasting has certain challenges, including as today’s ban on meat. Like every Friday during Lent and Good Friday, he will only eat one meal today.
Wahlberg will also lead listeners through encouraging lectures on the discipline of fasting as part of the Hallow app’s Pray40 Lent Challenge.

That is what he has observed, at least.
He said that discipline has always been important to him in life. As he transitioned from music to movies, he realized he needed a lot more discipline in his life, and that discipline has given him a lot of other benefits. He has been so richly rewarded for it, that he wants to share it with others, whether it be through fasting, increased exercise, disengagement from other activities, or simply spending more time in prayer and thorough study with God. They are important things to think about.
When asked to sum up his religion, Wahlberg responded, “It’s everything.”
He continued by saying that it had provided him with a lot of opportunities. God obviously did not send Himself to save the believers. Jesus was sent to save the lost. One has experienced experiences in life that have made them want to be better versions of themselves, and focusing on his faith has assisted him in doing just that.
