My favourite literary Santa Claus did it again, but on this occasion, his bag of goodies had a new twist. Harris decided to delve into the place that had the most salacious secrets, most undercover freaks, biggest hypocrites and egomaniacs. You guessed it – he took us to church! A departure from his garrison gatherings or street hustling stories, ‘The Good Shepherd’ chronicles the inner workings of the pulpit pimps otherwise known as pastors or in this case ‘shepherd’ and shines a spotlight that may make some uncomfortable but in actuality modelled the reality of what is happening in many churches today. A hierarchy of perceived status, jealousy and blind obedience, these places are simply a microcosm of the wider world. Some people may think the church is a sanctuary but for many, it has the same challenges as the very world so many try to isolate themselves from.
