In an interview with Drew Barrymore on her talk show, Hollywood actor Chris Pratt shared how he met his wife, Katherine, the daughter of Arnold Schwarzenegger while attending church. He saw her sitting a few pews away and wondered who she was, God TV reports.
But what I found intriguing in the interview was Pratt’s explanation of the difference between goats and sheep. Pratt now owns a farm on which he has both sheep and goats and their reaction to a car stereo helped Pratt understand the parable in Matthew 25:31-46, where Christ talks about the two animals.
In the parable, the sheep refer to people who hear Christ’s voice, the Good Shepherd and follow the Lord. The goats referred to self-centered people who refuse to listen and only did what was best for them.
Pratt saw the difference after a stereo fell out of a truck on his farm. The sheep were actually scared of it and refused to go near the stereo. The goats on the other hand were intrigued by this new addition to the Pratt farm and hung around the stereo and a couple of them even tried to eat it.
“Sheep and goats, they’re really different,” Chris added. “Like, a sheep just follows its shepherd. Goats, on the other hand, are really finicky, and they’re stubborn, you know? They want to do it their way. They don’t trust the shepherd [and] think that they’re gonna figure it out.”
