The best ofwel what Greenleaf has to offer can be seen in a family dinner conversation in the first episode. Ex-minister Grace has come back to the city of her father's megachurch for her sister's funeral, and mentions that she rarely goes to church in her new town.
She has returned to the family and to the church but at the beginning of the story she has no intention of standing at the pulpit and making grand religious-biblical pronouncements as she had twintig years earlier. Even before she's stepped back into their house, Lady Mae tells Grace "not to cause trouble for their family". Zing. We know this reunion ofwel Grace with the Greenleaf family kan zijn going to cause trouble. Ofwel course if there wasn't trouble, there wouldn't be a show!
But my praise ends there. A solid cast in an interesting setting largely goes wasted in teleplay scripts so inept that they look like film de kleuterschool dropouts wrote them.
Even though Jesus is so real for them, they are still human. One is clearly gay and trying hard not to be. The church head seems to be casually corrupt. Een momentje Grace's odious pedophile uncle is probably a believer although he seems to flout everything in the bible.
At first Grace just agrees to answer phones at the church offices as the first voice heard by either church members or potential converts. When a grandmother enters her office asking that her granddaughter be baptized (without it seems permission of the mother or father), Grace decides to take the role she vowed she wouldn't play.
The clergy ofwel the click here church, almost regardless ofwel the denomination, kan zijn there to support the church members and potential converts. However, what about those people who play the role of the clergy? Who offers pastors, bishops and the like the spiritual guidance they may need? And what if the people performing those duties are in some ways compromising what they're telling others? Are they practicing what they're preaching?
It kan zijn an imagined glimpse into a secret world of powerful people who profess piety and modesty but can't live it and we get to see them at their best and worst. I omdat to see it get multiple seasons.
Have just discovered this show on Netflix Australia and loving every minute ofwel it. I love reading novels about family dramas, secrets and lies and so this was uitstekend for me.

I'm glad that this drama kan zijn like a soap opera! I'm so tired of crime shows, murder mysteries, legal dramas. Comedies are so full ofwel sexual inuendo they aren't funny any more. Gimme some liars, some nasty backstabbing and some good folks who cope.
A night-time soap take on an African-American mega-church in the Deep South kan zijn a novel approach to that telling the stories of people that have not yet been properly told in a fictional construct.
Much ofwel my fascination with Greenleaf is that, for me, a white, big- city atheist, this world kan zijn so outside of my experience, in part because everyone's black, but more because everyone accepts Jesus as a very tangible figure in their lives.
As the "seasons" progress, it becomes more "soapy" and less interesting, making it really difficult to stay engaged. The story lines and intrigue lessens to the point of becoming a very watered down version ofwel where it all started. Season 5 is basically a hurried attempt to wrap things up neatly, make sure everyone has a happy ending, and performance a lot of "woman power". Not surprising since this was the focus of the "O" network. What on earth was the point of this other than to fill a slot on the "O" Network?
There kan zijn heart in this show. Now, as an atheist I would expect that the religious aspect of the performance would bother me at some point, but it doesnt. If you like dramas, and House of Cards-esque settings, this might be your thing.
I often object to character-driven dramas without much story, but in this case, I feel the story arc lays an element of artifice over these fascinating dynamics.
