Plot

(From back cover)Parents are our primary role models. They have the awesome responsibility of shaping the perceptions we learn by observation and experience. We apply these perceptios to our view of God, our self concept, and our relationships with other people. The problem is that our parents are imperfect people who model beliefs and behaviors learned from their imperfect parents. As a result, our perceptions are often faulty, and we and our relationships suffer. Our misperceptions, manifestedin pain, insecurity, anger, or rejection are cycled from one generation to the next, and would go unaltered if it were not for the truth of God's word. "The Parent Factor" and its accompanying workbook (included in the text)will enable you to analyze how your perceptions were shaped by your parents. Using Scripture, you will learn how to reshape false perceptions of God and yourself so that you can experience his love, forgiveness, and power in all of life's circumstances.
