Tim Allen surprised after deep read of the Bible: 'Not at all what I was expecting'
Christian Post,
Famed actor Tim Allen, who many will recognize today as the star of the sitcom "Last Man Standing," said he is taking the time to thoroughly read the Bible from the Old Testament to the New Testament for the first time, saying the journey is not what he expected.
The 71-year-old comedian and voice of Buzz Lightyear in "Toy Story" has been outspoken about his Christian faith throughout most of his career. But in a Tuesday X post, the television star shared that he has almost finished reading the Old Testament in the Jerusalem Bible, a Roman Catholic translation.
"Never took the time in all my years to ever read and really read the Bible," Allen wrote. "Currently almost through the Jerusalem Bible Old Testament and almost done with the Prophets. Next up to New Testament. ... not at all what I was expecting."
Despite his career in comedy and starring in lighthearted sitcoms like "Home Improvement," the actor has been transparent about some of his life struggles.
When Allen was 11, his father was killed by a drunk driver.
In a 2011 interview with Elizabeth Vargas of ABC's "20/20," Allen said that in his time of grief, he asked himself whether he could have prevented his father's death. The actor confessed there was a period in his life when he attended church, but he "didn't like the idea of God" and was "constantly a cynic."
