Functional Dysfunction Rachel and Leah

Healing begins when you are willing to confront what has shaped you.

Many of the struggles people face today-broken relationships, jealousy, favoritism, insecurity, unhealthy attachments, family conflict, poor choices, and emotional wounds-are not new. They have existed since biblical times, and the lives of Rachel, Leah, Jacob, and Esau reveal how deeply dysfunctional patterns can influence individuals and families across generations.

In Functional Dysfunction: Rachel and Leah, licensed psychologist and Associate Pastor Keith Copeland combines more than forty years of clinical experience with timeless biblical truth to create an engaging, interactive workbook designed to help readers identify destructive behaviors, understand their emotional roots, and pursue lasting personal, emotional, and spiritual growth.

Rather than presenting Scripture as distant history, Copeland invites readers to step into the lives of these biblical families and discover reflections of their own experiences. Through practical teaching, guided self-assessment, thought-provoking questions, journaling exercises, Scripture meditation, and prayer, readers are encouraged to examine how trust, rejection, comparison, forgiveness, relationships, identity, family dynamics, and personal responsibility continue to shape everyday life.

Whether used individually, in Bible studies, churches, counseling groups, rehabilitation programs, or discipleship ministries, this workbook offers practical tools to help readers develop healthier relationships with God, themselves, and others. Each chapter encourages honest self-reflection while providing biblical wisdom that leads toward healing, restoration, and lasting transformation.
