Summary

This week, Jake and Bob discuss intergenerational healing, taking into account recent pastoral advice from Bishops around the world. Intergenerational healing involves understanding how wounds and sins from previous generations can affect individuals in the present. Jake and Bob not only reflect on the Bishops’ letters, which express concern regarding the practice of intergenerational healing, but also share personal experiences of miraculous healings that occurred after addressing generational issues in prayer.

Key Points:

The Church teaches that while individuals are not guilty for the sins of their ancestors, they can still be affected by the consequences of those sins
Intergenerational healing involves understanding how the wounds and sins from previous generations can affect individuals in the present
A genogram is a tool for mapping family history and identifying patterns of sin and dysfunction
Baptism wipes away the guilt of sin but the effects of sin may still remain
Healing your wounds and forgiving those who have hurt you can have a profound impact on the lives of your loved ones

Resources:
