Jennifer Garner would have wanted to be a minister if she hadn't created a successful acting career. In fact, the 51-year-old actress' mom is still convinced Garner that one day it will happen. "I would have really liked being a minister," the "13 Going on 30" actress told Allure magazine. "My mom thinks I still will be.
I grew up in such a lovely church in the United Methodist Church, and the minister was like the den parent." She continued: "What I like about the study of religion, it reminds me of the study of theater – it’s really a liberal arts education.
You have to understand history, geography, literature. It’s art, it’s everything. I don’t know anything about Hinduism, Islam, so many other religions, and I wish I did.That feels like a sign of respect." Garner goes to church with her three kids, Violet Anne, 17, Seraphina Rose, 13, and Samuel, 10, whom she shares with her ex Ben Affleck.The former couple's eldest daughter even teaches Sunday school. "I think the more you engage, the more you learn about different ways that people believe and worship, the more you can sit next to anyone and be a neighbor," she told the magazine. "There’s such value in that to me.
I don’t know that I will ever be someone who is writing a sermon Sunday morning, but I like the idea of it. I like the idea of going back to divinity school." Garner gained fame in 2001 after appearing in the first season of "Alias." Her fame continued with roles in films such as "Juno" and "Daredevil." Despite her success, Garner hasn't always loved being in the spotlight.
