Who is Chuck Norris, and why is he still so famous today even though he's not making movies anymore? Chuck Norris was a friend and co-actor of the legend of martial artist Bruce Lee. He played one of the villains in the movie "The Way of the Dragon" in 1972. Because of his excellent portrayal, even in a small role, he was encouraged to pursue acting in films and became a popular action film star in Hollywood. He was extremely popular back in the 70s, and any martial arts or martial arts-inspired film back then would have elements of Chuck Norris in it. Because of this, he was able to create a successful TV series called "Walker, Texas Ranger" from 1993 to 2001. Even as far as 2012, he appeared in a film with Sylvester Stallone in "The Expendables 2".
Aside from being a famous martial artist actor, he is also a fitness guru, philosopher, writer, and follower of Jesus Christ. Chuck Norris became well-known in Hollywood as a six-time world karate champion with over 23 films under his belt, but what is most interesting about him is the way he met Jesus Christ. He experienced a life-threatening crisis in his family when his wife had difficulty giving birth, and their unborn twins were in danger. Chuck Norris realized that his knowledge of martial arts or his fame and millions of dollars couldn't help his wife who was on the brink of death. It was at this moment that he realized that the only true source of strength and power is the Lord Jesus Christ, and the only one he can turn to is God. Even with all the famous people he knew, Chuck Norris realized that no one could help him at that moment except God. This experience deepened his desire to have a relationship with Jesus, and it convinced him that the power of prayer really works. Because of this, he rededicated his life to Jesus and attended the Billy Graham crusade. His mother had a great influence on him by teaching him to value Jesus above all.
Life was not easy for Chuck Norris as he climbed the ladder of success in Hollywood. As his wealth grew, he and his wife had constant arguments, and he was even tempted to cheat on her. He felt that his sins were weighing him down and he knew that it was not what God wanted. He asked for forgiveness from the Lord and his wife and renewed his relationship with his wife. He said, "There are human frailties; we all have them, and we all sin."
Today, he is active in the ministry of helping children learn the art of martial arts to build self-esteem. He has committed his work to God and made the stand of bringing back the Bible in school. This is the enduring fame of Chuck Norris, a blessing that came from God so that when people learn about his life story, they too will go back and rededicate their lives to God. For Chuck Norris,
it was Jesus Christ who is the real hero and savior, and he credits everything to Him.
