Russell Brand Declares He’s Changed His Ways, Never Been Closer to Jesus

Controversial comedian Russell Brand, who’s best known for his vulgarity, insults, and wild behavior, says he’s discovered that Jesus Christ is the solution to the world’s problems. “My personal feeling is the teachings of Christ are more relevant now than they’ve ever been,” Brand said in an interview with Relevant magazine.

“There’s a famous quote: ‘Every man who knocks on a brothel door, he’s looking for God,'” he added. “Crack houses and these dens of suffering and illicit activity, they’re all people trying to feel good, trying to feel connected. People are trying to escape. People are trying to get out of their own heads. To me, this is a spiritual impetus.” MORE
