From humble beginnings, Mark Wahlberg has achieved incredible Hollywood success through devotion to faith and hard work.

At the opening of his new restaurant, Flecha, Wahlberg stated to Planet Chronicle Digital that finding a good balance between his faith, family, and success is crucial. However, he emphasized that he attributes all his success to his faith.

Bishop Kevin W. Vann blessed the space with a little holy water and prayer during the opening night festivities.

Wahlberg has never been one to shy away from sharing his beliefs.

Recently, some of Wahlberg's career choices in the entertainment industry have been influenced by his faith.

He has been featured in films such as "Father Stu," which is based on a true story of a boxer who became a Catholic priest and battled a rare muscle disease, as well as family-friendly films like "The Family Plan" and "Arthur the King."

"Last year, Wahlberg stated that he hoped God was a movie enthusiast, as he had made some questionable films like "Boogie Nights" and "Ted.""

As a parent and husband, my decision-making is influenced by those roles, but I also value artistic integrity. I enjoy taking risks and chances.

On June 5, the "Patriots Day" star turned 53 and hopes his kids will strike a balance between discipline and risk-taking.

Wahlberg has four children with his wife, Rhea Durham: Ella, 20, Michael, 18, Brendan, 15, and Grace, 14.
