Aren't we all God's children? Don't we all belong to the family of God? Would it surprise you to learn that in the Old Testament God doesn't call Himself our father and doesn't refer to people as His children? Being a member of the human race doesn't mean we automatically qualify for membership in God's family. Before Jesus took on flesh, God revealed Himself as our Creator, Maker, and King. It's only on His terms, not ours, that we become His true sons and daughters. The Family Tree offers a fresh perspective on God's relentless love and pursuit of you and reveals how you can become part of the family that God gets back. Vignettes that explore the thoughts and feelings of Bible characters propel you through the gospel to a conclusion that demands a response. "Jeanne's ability to take even the most profound truth and make it palatable for all is truly a gift. This book is a wealth of knowledge for the searcher and the theologian alike." Rev. Shanna Gerber, PAOC "You will hear Jeanne's heart (for you specifically) in the pages of this book. May God use her words to inspire and challenge you to respond to God's invitation to be fully-known, entirely forgiven and perfectly loved." Rev. Rielly McLaren, Community Chaplain to Federal Ex-offenders in Windsor, ON
