Our families of origin and past experiences impact every human, both for bad and for good. In this teaching, John Mark explores the nature of blessing throughout the Bible and God's plan to bring blessing to the whole world, while showing how blessings are passed from one generation to the next. Because of the influence that we can have and our authority to bless, John Mark invites us to partner with God's plan by blessing our children, our friends, and our circumstances as a way to pass on good to the next generation.

Key Scripture Passages: Genesis 12:1-3; Genesis 25:7; Genesis 26:23-25; Genesis 27:1-40; Genesis 28:10-15; Genesis 48:1-20; Genesis 2:24; Mark 10:13-16
