‘I Accepted Christ’: First Look at New Movie on Steve McQueen’s Journey to Jesus

Steve McQueen

There is a new chapter in the salvation story of Hollywood icon Steve McQueen, and CBN News has an exclusive first look.

Pastor Leonard DeWitt is the man who led “the king of cool” to Christ just months before McQueen lost battle with cancer.

DeWitt shares the story in a new documentary produced by Pastor Greg Laurie.

“And every Sunday, we went to church. I think that was just Steve’s way. He wanted to make sure he had all of his questions answered,” DeWitt explains.

“I said, ‘Each one of us is different. But God has a tailor-made plan for each of us,'” DeWitt recalled. “And he grinned and said, ‘You want to know if I am born again, don’t you?’ And then he said, ‘Remember the Sunday that you invited people that wanted to receive Christ? When you gave that invitation,’ he said, ‘that is when I accepted Christ.'”

Steve McQueen: American Icon hits theaters Sept. 28.
