Star Turn: Matthew McConaughey
Mysterious Ways|December/January 2018

“Just keep livin’.”

Alexandria Bova
Star Turn: Matthew McConaughey

That’s actor Matthew McConaughey’s catchphrase. The native Texan is known for playing both charmers and rogues in movies like The Wedding Planner and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. But offscreen he’s a man of deep faith. He famously thanked God in his 2014 Oscars speech for Best Actor for Dallas Buyers Club, saying, “He has graced my life with opportunities that I know are not of my hand or of any other human hand.” Coincidences, you might say, aren’t quite so coincidental to Matthew.
