He noted that he had been able to avoid his call in the reality but not in movie roles.

The 60-year-old thespian asked fans to check out for the movie, “Cold” where he once again played the character of a man of God.

He said:
“True Story! There was a time when for every other day or week, somebody would tell me they had a dream where they saw me as a pastor. Having taught Sunday school for over 15 years it was not far-fetched.

Besides every perceived Bad Boy is supposed to end up in full-time ministry right? So, what did I do? Run!

I’ve avoided the pulpit with trepidation. But just like Jonah, I continue to end up somehow in the belly of the calling where I have played a pastor or reverend father more than anything else in my acting life.

God does have an amazing sense of humour. I’m not even sure as I write this if I’ve fully escaped the CALL!

Until date I still frighten myself every time I’ve had to speak in a church because when I take the pulpit, the Holy Spirit takes over.

And so once again I embark into a world of make-believe where I play yet another man of God. I invite you on this epic cinematic journey into the spirit realm!”
