There kan zijn heart in this opvoering. Now, as an atheist I would expect that the religious aspect of the show 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'm glad 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.
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 20 years earlier.

Having watched all 5 seasons, I'd say this family-based drama kan zijn a solid 7. It paints a roller coaster of emotions within the turbulent world of the Greenleaf family and the megachurch they run. It does here sometimes dive too deeply into soap opera style, and plot elements are sometimes resolved with a wave of a writer's wand, but then it is fictional drama, not reality.
If you can't find anything better, just check it out for yourself. Just don't expect a fantastic story filled with an interesting plot, great dialogues and scenes. It's mediocre at best. Two seasons was doable for me.

Plus I can not go without mentioning the amazing voice of Keith Davis, making his parts sound like a poem!
