Judging from the comments here, the main problem that viewers had with it
wasn't too many subplots, but that God's assignments were too focused on
Joan herself (and her friends) and less on helping Joan see how everything
is
connected.

I disagree. They served two purposes:

(1) With rare exceptions, they parallelled Joan's story, giving Joan's
lesson
for the week a more universal emphasis by showing how the concepts learned
applied to others.

(2) They showed the darker side of life, while Joan's plots took a more
positive
bent. The effect was in showing how good things and bad things can
co-exist.
