This half-day workshop will focus on "Cooperation, Consequences, and Keeping Your Sanity." You will learn an approach to parenting that impacts a child’s heart rather than relying solely on behavior modification or rewards and punishments. Our study includes a five-step process for giving instructions, as well as how to use consequences to bring about heart change in your kids. Parents, grandparents, aspiring parents...all are welcome! We will also provide a fun, engaging experience for children (2 yrs - 5th grade) to learn these same principles. Register today!

The Parenting is Heart Work material by Dr. Scott Turansky and Joanne Miller is designed to equip parents in a heart-based approach to parenting. Since then, this important resource has become a centerpiece among the many resources offered by The National Center for Biblical Parenting. Many parents focus primarily on behaviors in an attempt to restrain or get their kids to follow instructions. This approach to parenting usually works for a time but doesn't produce the lasting change we're looking for. Often, parents become increasingly frustrated and give in to reactive parenting or anger. This cycle can become even more challenging in the teenage years, as children begin to assert levels of independence and parents grow increasingly discouraged. The mission of the National Center for Biblical Parenting is to equip parents in a heart-based approach to parenting that produces lasting change in their children. Our workshop will draw upon these principles to help grow your parenting skills in new ways and strengthen your family!
