Book Description:
Do the following questions express what you have felt—or asked—in the past?

* Does a weeping willow describe your family tree?
* Do you secretly wish you had been born to a different family?
* Did you pick up some bad DNA from someone in your lineage?
* Would you like to put on a new set of genes and make a new you?
* Is there a warfare going on that you won’t talk about?
* What are the keys to a happy home and marriage?


If so, keep reading! There are two important ways for you to alter your present personal situations and prepare for a great emotional and spiritual future—by purging your house and pruning your family tree. Purging your house involves removing spiritual, emotional, and mental hindrances from three houses: spiritual, physical, and emotional. The author teaches readers the 3-step process of removing the leprosy (laying aside the weights or sins), rebuilding a fresh foundation (replacing old thoughts with new thoughts), and restoring the house (new friends, relations, directions). Pruning your family tree involves a process called redemptive alteration, which positively impacts your future when the Word of God defeats the sin habits and overcomes the carnal nature through regeneration. The author reveals the dangers that can harm or destroy our family are the same dangers that destroy nature’s trees—storms that place pressure on the branches, drought the destroys the leaves, cold weather that destroys the fruit, and floods that uproot the entire tree. He teaches us how to evict the enemy by quoting Scripture, experiencing the anointing, rebuking the devil, and having strong faith.

READING ROOM REVIEW

This was an interesting book. Often when we feel we've been dealt bad cards in life, we feel we are stuck in the situation. This book gives us hope that we can change our lives and the lives of those who come after us by breaking family curses and sinful strongholds that may have plagued our family line. It is very insightful and the author offers practical solutions, not lofty, theological suggestions. If you are at all interested in improving your family tree, read this book!
