In hit 2000s comedy, he was keen to be 'hip and cool,' but can YOU guess who this unrecognizable celebrity is, 25 years after his on-screen character was tempted to leave the church?

Since appearing on televisions 25 years ago, this actor appears completely unrecognizable. During his time on the popular sitcom, he was a youth pastor who was recruited by parents in the hopes of having a positive influence on their children. However, his attempts to be 'hip and cool,' fell short, and he was eventually compelled to abandon the church. But can you guess who the now 62-year-old actor is?
