Podcast host and comedian Russell Brand took to social media on Monday to describe the “incredible” experience he had with his recent baptism.
Brand has discussed his path in exploring faith and Christianity over the past few months, revealing over the weekend that he would get baptized on Sunday. When reflecting on his baptism, Brand said that many aspects of it were “intimate and personal.”
“The truth is this, as a person that has in the past taken many, many substances and always been disappointed with their inability to deliver the kind of tranquility and peace, and even transcendence, that I always felt I’ve been looking for, something occurred in the process of baptism that was incredible, overwhelming, literally overwhelming, because I was obviously underwater,” Brand said.
