Lucas York Black, an American film and television actor, best known as the main character Sean Boswell in The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift along with his other known roles such as Caleb Temple in the CBS television series American Gothic and Special Agent Christopher LaSalle on NCIS: New Orleans has made a bold decision to put his faith first.Though Lucas Black grew up in a Christian home where he attended the Southern Baptist church every Sunday, he sort of drifted from his faith as he got older. But after falling in love and starting a family, he began to reevaluate the role of faith in his life.“That was when the Holy Spirit convicted me,” Lucas recalled. “And really, my faith and my relationship with the Lord became a lot closer. That was when I was stepping into the fatherhood role. So I really wanted to point my kids in the right direction.”Not only was his rigorous work schedule taking away from his time with God, but it was also taking him away from his time with his wife and kids and Lucas couldn’t ignore the convictions in his heart from his Heavenly Father.And so, at the height of his Hollywood career, he took a bold step and stepped out in faith.“The show has been so good to me over the years exceeding my expectations and goals,” he said. “But this job isn’t easy for me, there are a lot of priorities in my life that get sacrificed for me to be here but it’s time for me to focus on those priorities in my life,” Black said.At age 11, Black made his film debut in Kevin Costner‘s film The War and played a supporting role as Oakley in the historical drama Cold Mountain in 2003.ALSO READ Oli London Detransitions And Converts to Christianity
