One of the finest gifts you can give to your children is the powerful force of generational blessings pursuing them. This book describes how you can appropriate the blessings already in your family line, then widen and deepen the stream of blessings so your children have more to draw from than you did.

One is that too often our generational curses neutralize the power of the blessings.
