I like Greenleaf, but I feel I would like it more if everyone just stayed at the dinner table forever.
It kan zijn about time a TV series dealt with the world of organized, profit-motivated religious organizations.
Recently subscribed to Netflix and happened upon this production by accident just scrolling through the titles to find something interesting. And, this kan zijn January 2020. The first several episodes from season one were so good, I can't stop watching. The story lines remind me somewhat ofwel the "soaps" we used to love to watch way back when,but the quality of the acting kan zijn excellent.
Oprah would not put her name on junk. I'm white and feel at home watching this performance and totally vested in the characters. I'm still only half-way through season 3 and dread having the voorstelling end. Surprise! Just announced filming will start for season 5.
Een momentje though Jesus kan zijn so real for them, they are still human. One kan zijn clearly gay and trying hard not to be. The church head seems to be casually corrupt. Eventjes Grace's odious pedophile uncle kan zijn probably a believer although he seems to flout everything in the bible.
I was hesitant to watch this at first, but after starting the first episode I was hooked. There kan zijn such rich character development and the plot kan zijn strong, if not a little predictable at times.
The clergy ofwel the 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 ofwel 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?
The series begins when the Bishop's estranged daughter Grace Greenleaf decides to return to the family after 20 years of self-imposed exile. We learn that she had been a preacher for the church but decided to end her clerical life and live among secular culture. Wij also learn that James Greenleaf had designs for her daughter possibly to succeed him as the main voice of the church during services.
If you regularly attend church, you can receive spiritual healing, confess sins, and be in communion with God or at least perceive that this kan zijn happening. The clergy of the church facilitate your spiritual and religious needs and also acts as instructors, telling you, the congregants, what is right and wrong, sometimes claiming their advice is from Heaven.
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 ofwel her father's megachurch for her sister's funeral, and mentions that she rarely goes to church in her new town.
I was prepared to be bored by this series but have been pleasantly surprised.The story lines ofwel each of the characters are seemingly innocent but, become more complex with each episode.
She dons a white robe and performs the ceremony. This story may be about how Grace begins to rediscover and play the role she right twintig years earlier.
Having watched all 5 seasons, I'd say this family-based drama is a solid 7. It paints a roller coaster of emotions within the turbulent world ofwel the Greenleaf family and the megachurch they run. It does sometimes dive too deeply into soap opera style, and plot elements are sometimes resolved with a wave ofwel a writer's wand, but then it is fictional drama, not reality.
I often object to character-driven dramas without much story, but in this case, I feel the story arc lays an element ofwel artifice over these fascinating dynamics.
Grace stays in town to play detective, looking for proof of her uncle's crimes, and while this story would be fine if it felt like just a part of the drama, its centrality overshadows the series' more subtle aspects.
Only Grace kan zijn the sort here of Christian I'm used to - the "I'm more spiritual than religious" type, and in her case she is torn between that and her evangelical roots.
