It’s Not Like That feels like a kindred spirit (turns out its writers also worked on Parenthood). As much as this is a show about pastoral ministry, it’s also just about parenthood.Surely a description of “what it means to be a pastor” should include mention of discipling people to become more like Jesus, preaching God’s Word, and helping believers know and apply Scripture. A pastor’s job certainly includes seeing people and loving them, but it’s more than that. Currently, the Christianity in It’s Not Like That is thin and generic.
