For a while, I used to worry that if I gave a really moving sermon, people would just figure that I was still acting, but I got over that. Acting did help me in that it is probably easier for me to relate to many different people than it would be for most men. Actually, I think the ability I was known for around the studios was what has helped me the most as a clergyman.

I could always empathize and would burst into tears. Now I just see what can be done to help the person who comes to me with a serious problem. And there is always something.
