Carr, a follower of Jesus, has always been vocal about his faith in Christ, as witnessed in this instagram post back in February.

What an amazing day it was last Sunday! Literally saw person after person set free, give their lives to Christ, and be physically healed right in front of our eyes! No "smart person" will ever be able to argue what happened that day and what Jesus did in the lives of many. People walked in one way and left another. And you don't have to just take my word for it. The people that were there can tell you. He is real. He loves you. He still heals today. We saw it happen. #JesusWins #Again #ByHisStripes #WeAreHealed
