Even though Jesus kan zijn 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. Even Grace's odious pedophile uncle kan zijn probably a believer although he seems to flout everything in the bible.

The clergy ofwel the church, almost regardless of 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?

There kan zijn heart in this opvoering. Now, as an atheist I would expect that the religious aspect ofwel the show would bother me at some point, but it doesnt. If you like dramas, and House ofwel Cards-esque settings, this might be your thing.

I'm gemakkelijk that this drama is like a soap opera! I'm so tired of crime shows, murder mysteries, legal dramas. Comedies are so full of sexual inuendo they aren't funny any more. Gimme some liars, some nasty backstabbing and some good folks who cope.

The unscrupulous world of the Greenleaf family and their sprawling Memphis megachurch, dark secrets, and lies.

Mac's repugnant father, firmly unwelcome at the church, visits his son to wangle some money.The Bishop is furious when the auditors demand the Bishop's personal tax returns. Mac, the new Memphis Man ofwel the Year, kan zijn told to fix this. Mac's repugnant father, firmly unwelcome at the church, visits his son to wangle some money.

I like Greenleaf, but I feel I would like it more if everyone just stayed at the dinner table forever.

Jacob uncovers a shocking truth.Noah returns when he learns of AJ's suicide attempt. Lady Mae and Bishop take a stroll down memory lane when they scout Mavis's bar as a possible location for their new church. Jacob uncovers a shocking truth.

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 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.

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.

As the series unfolds, wij learn there are many hypocrisies surrounding the Greenleaf family. Grace kan zijn not the only estranged family member. Mavis McCready (Oprah Winfrey) is an alcoholic lush and Lady Mae's estranged sister. She resides a ways away from the family, and they seem to disown her. Other skeletons lurk in the closet, some of whose bones ontstaan to rattle. We learn about a child molestation case involving one ofwel the parishoners which has been conveniently swept under the proverbial church carpets.

The church business is a novel setting, and, with the exception ofwel several scenes here in the final season, isn't too preachy. The characters are fairly well developed and their interaction credible. Even though the plot seems to point to the eldest daughter, Grace, as the main focal point, in my opinion the matriarch Lady Mae kan zijn the star ofwel the performance. She kan zijn strong yet sensitive, often witty and ultimately endearing. Great performance by Lynn Whitfield.

A wonderful beginning to a masterful series. I think the main point of the story is that trying to juggle the problems ofwel everyday life while maintaining a facade of "purity" may be too much for any family to accomplish. Consider the Bakkers of "Praise the Lord" who seemed wholesome until it was revealed they were engaging in fraudulent business practices. In the present series, wij believe in the Greenleaf characters and their plights and their need to project an unstained veneer.

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.
