Healing Family Relationships: A Guide to Peace and Reconciliation

Written by Rob Rienow

Narrated by Tom Parks

Every family is hurting, and the wounds that come from our relatives can be deeper than all others. Conflict within a family can range from daily frictions and annoyances to rage and hatred and eventually estrangement. We want things to be different but have no idea where to start.

After twenty-five years of ministering to families, Rob Rienow believes reconciliation is at the heart of the gospel-reconciliation with God and one another. You will come away with specific steps you can take in your relationships with your family members to pursue peace and healing in your homes. Each chapter includes key biblical examples as well as present-day stories of families who have experienced God's help and healing-including the author's own miraculous healing of his relationship with his father.

Our families can bring out the best, as well as the worst, in all of us. May this book guide you in making your home and family a blessing in a broken world.

Reviews for Healing Family Relationships

[gincam · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

While some hurtful family relationships may seem damaged beyond repair, there is still hope for reconciliation and spiritual renewal. In "Healing Family Relationships: A Guide to Peace and Reconciliation", Rob Rienow, Doctor of Ministry, offers practical guidelines, biblical insights, and personal stories (including the healing of his relationship with his own father). Not much in our lives is more painful than broken relationships with loved ones. Such situations have negative effects on every aspect of our lives. Dr. Rienow acknowledges "the power of forgiveness" and advises healing through Prayer, Repentance, Listening, Acceptance, Spiritual Warfare, Boundaries, Compassion, Patience, Mediators, and Mercy. He then explains how the positive effects of spiritual healing and reconciliation can work life-changing miracles down through generations. He includes his own story of how his troubled relationship with his father came full circle. No matter how deep the rifts may seem in relationships with loved ones, don't give up. Instead, clarify in your mind what you need to do and what you want the outcome to be--then work as hard as you can spiritually--and every way--to hold on to those you hold most dear.Book Copy Gratis Bethany House Books
