Speaking to the Blaze, the 40 year old life-long Catholic said that when working in Hollywood, Christian actors should focus on relevant projects that don't lead them to sacrifice their morality.

"Use your creativity to find new opportunities that both align with your beliefs and inspire those around you," he said.

Verastegui revealed that when his acting career first took off, he found himself acting in a way which he knew violated Biblical principles.

"Whether I like it not," those movies, TV shows and music videos "affected how people think, how they behave," Verastegui explained in an earlier interview with the Christian Post.

After realizing this, the Mexican actor made a promise to God that he would never again use his talents for something that would "offend" his "faith, family, or Latino culture."
