 George Barclay
The Barclays are a quintessential American family,
struggling with how to implement Christian principles with the
distractions and problems of daily life. George Barclay is a loving,
well-meaning husband and father and a hard worker in his career—until he
was laid off. From there, he answered a call to the ministry and now
pastors a church in the small New England town of Pokenberry Falls.
As
head of the Barclay household, George wants to lead his family in a
responsible manner, but sometimes fumbles. He's a loving, well-meaning
husband/father in his early forties and a hard worker, until he was laid
off. After that, he answered a call to the ministry and now pastors a
church in the small New England town of Pokenberry Falls.
Family
George is the strong head of the Barclay household, with
three children (Donna, Jimmy, and Stewart Reed), and is married to Mary
Barclay. His father is Grandpa Barclay. He takes exception to the
family's dog, Normal, but doesn't seem to mind the cat, Ferguson. He has
also mentioned a brother named Bill.
George tries hard to understand what his kids are going
through, and attempts to lead them in a responsible manner. He fumbles
occasionally, but isn't afraid to admit it, even to his kids. He often
has self-doubt, but manages to make those around him feel secure, and
generally finds his foot-hold soon. He was a hard worker, until he was
laid off of his job. After that, he answered a call to the ministry and
now pastors a church in the small New England town of Pokenberry Falls.
He dearly loves his family and cares for them the best way he knows how.
