The author reflects on the lessons about family, feuds, fallouts and faith in the Book of Genesis. He says that the jealousy, resentment and anger between Sarah and Hagar over their sons with Abraham represents the many elements of faulty family dynamics. He notes that the teaching to love Jesus Christ more than their parents and children also contribute to family feuds. He stresses that family and faith do not always go along well together and that the family is the hardest place to be a Christian.
