The Mountain, The Mother, and the Wound: Healing the Isaac Complex in Modern Families: The Book

Deliverance can end a moment. Healing restores a lineage.

In The Mountain, the Mother, and the Wound, Dr. Delisa Rodgers delivers a prophetic correction to triumph-only theology that celebrates obedience while ignoring the emotional and relational aftermath of obedience. Drawing from biblical scholarship, Hebraic insight, and trauma-informed ministry, this book exposes the hidden cost paid by Abraham’s household—and reveals how those same unresolved wounds continue to fracture covenant families today.

This is not an attack on faith.

It is the completion of it.

It explains why believers can quote Scripture fluently yet struggle to connect emotionally.

Why leaders can prophesy accurately but cannot rest.

Why covenant families look anointed in public while quietly breaking apart in private.

Because we were taught how to survive the altar—

but not how to heal from it.

If you passed the test but still carry the wound…

If obedience cost you more than anyone ever acknowledged…

If your family is repeating patterns no one wants to name…

This book is your roadmap for healing what deliverance alone does not fix.

God never wanted a traumatized promise.

He wanted a healed lineage.

And healing begins when we finally tell the whole story.
