Paul Rudd. (Ant-Man, Clueless, Anchorman) In 2012, while talking to The Jewish Journal, Paul said, “My whole family is Jewish; my wife, Julie, is Jewish. There isn’t anyone in my family who isn’t Jewish. I was bar mitzvahed Reform; we were pretty laid back, but it’s like, oh yeah, I went to synagogue.… We have a lineage that is so many thousands of years old, that you just relate. It is a tribe; it’s like, ‘Oh, yeah, that’s my team,’ and I feel that for sure.” Paul later stated in a 2015 interview with The Guardian that he doesn’t consider himself religious or raising his family in the Jewish tradition. ( ROBIN: SEE NEXT POST OF THIS INTERVIEW ) While promoting Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire in 2024, IGV Presents asked Paul, Mckenna Grace, and Finn Wolfhard which historical figure they would most like to meet. Paul replied, “Anyone from history, who would we choose? I know my answer. Jesus Christ.” As you see in the video attached, both of his co-stars started laughing, to which Paul said, “By the way, laugh all you want!” Rudd said. “It seems like it would be a wrong thing to say.” Wolfhard then asked, “Was He real?” “He existed!, Rudd responded. “So wouldn’t you want to spend some time with Him and go ‘Jesus, what’s the deal?”’ “That’s a fantastic answer,” Grace replied. Ever since that interview, I’ve wanted to talk with Paul, and that door was opened a couple weeks ago in NYC. I immediately brought up that interview with Paul, and he said, “That’s still the case. If I could talk to anyone it would be Jesus so I could ask Him what the deal was with Him, because that determines everything.” We had a great conversation about who Jesus is, and when I mentioned Lee Strobel’s work, he said, “I’m going to sound rude, but I’m really hoping one of those books is in that gift bag”… and it was (The Case for Christianity). Please be praying for Paul to come to know and accept Jesus as his personal Lord and Savior.
