My dad shared this show with me a few episodes into this, its Freshman season. I truly look forward to watching it every week. Yes, it is a crime show and we've seen those before. But, what makes this show stand out to me is the quiet ways the family's faith interjects itself into the story-lines-- grace before meals, discussion of death/grief (the main character has lost both his wife and one of his son's), and a family that seems to place a high value to answering the call to serve.
Tonight's episode did not disappoint. But, nothing prepared me for the tears I'd shed during the dedication of the Atrium to his fallen son (we have come to know this son only through the memory of other characters). And, then, they fell a bit more when Commissioner Reagan offered his condolences to a criminal on his deathbed. They have an old history. Watch and see as Reagan offers something even better than his regrets...and celebrate with me the little ways our Faith can be shared even on Wednesday night primetime.
I like the Whole Hearted design and color scheme!
