Dysfunctional Family

Making Peace with Your Past

About this book

In many ways, dysfunctional families are becoming the "new norm" in our society, affecting families in and outside the church. In this 96-page book, June Hunt explains the signs, characteristics, and impact dysfunctional families have on children's attitudes and behavior—revealing the ugly truth that dysfunction often produces more dysfunction. She presents practical ways to break the generational cycle of dysfunction—giving those who come from this background hope and equipping those who minister to them (pastor, church leader, or friend) with practical insight on how to help.

Coming from a dysfunctional family can often make a person feel helpless—doomed to repeat the same mistakes and behaviors as their parents. Change is possible. Using the familiar Bible story of Joseph and his brothers, June reveals how God can use one family member yielded to him to change the dynamics of an entire family.

Compassionate in its approach, rich with scripture, and easy-to-understand, this 96-page book explains how to reverse the impact of unhealthy family relationships.

  • Includes a quick overview and key definitions. What is a dysfunctional family? What is a "functional" family? How does being raised in a dysfunctional family affect future relationships?
  • Reveals signs, symptoms, and common characteristics of a dysfunctional family.
  • Explains how unresolved conflicts in the past often cause children to repeat the dysfunctional behavior of their parents.
  • Provides dozens of step-by-steps suggestions and practical ways to replace "old mindsets and behaviors" from unhealthy family relationships with God's truth.


The dynamics of dysfunction are detrimental to the family. Discover how to cultivate your family now for the generations that follow as you establish and apply the principles of biblical truth in your own family.
