Comments on: Christian Actor in Upcoming Super Bowl Commercial Reveals Desire to Play Satan! http://johnshore.com/2009/01/30/christian-actor-in-upcoming-super-bowl-commercial-reveals-desire-to-play-satan/ Trying God's patience since 1958 Wed, 23 May 2012 16:37:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v= By: samwrites2 http://johnshore.com/2009/01/30/christian-actor-in-upcoming-super-bowl-commercial-reveals-desire-to-play-satan/comment-page-1/#comment-11725 samwrites2 Mon, 02 Feb 2009 11:42:47 +0000 http://suddenlychristian.com/?p=2295#comment-11725 John, Thanks for this interview - it really helped me define the difference between a Christian actor (or Christian ___ fill-in-the blank), an actor who is Christian and what difference God calls the actor to make in the world. I especially appreciate and hold Tim's view where he says that "I have a deep confidence that God approves of my career choice for profoundly personal reasons." And thanks to Morse, I too plan to check out "J.B." Hope it's at the library. -Sam John,

The character J.B. obviously being a stand-in for the title character. And fair warning, I've never actually looked at it deeply for it's themes. So if it comes off as anti-god, I apologize ahead of time. It is not my intent to recommend something just because it backs up my ideas. (Which it may or may not, I honestly don't remember. I just know it's a good play.) J.B. is actually a retelling of the Job story. The character J.B. obviously being a stand-in for the title character.

(I may have asked you this before.) The role of Nickles, who is Satan, is easily the best character. Though I ended up playing the God character, Mr. Zuss.
