Tell us a little about yourself. Joanne Miller, RN, BSN and I teach parenting seminars all over the country. It's likely that we'll be in your area this year. You might want to check out our schedule online.
What was your motivation behind this project? Behavior modification says things ike, "You can watch a video if you clean your room." This "I'll give you what you want if you do
what I say" approach breeds selfishness in kids. There's a whole different way to parent. We're committed to showing you how.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? We started with a biblical study of the word "heart" in scripture. From the 750 verses that use the word "heart" we identified 9 functions of the heart and then applied that to parenting. Our
goal is to help parents move from a simple behavior modification approach to a heart based approach. Awana purchased 5000 copies of the book for their new parent training
program. Over 50 ministry leaders have endorsed this book. you can read them all at our web site biblicalparenting.org.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: We also offer free email parenting tips. We'd love to get you signed up to receive these heart based tips a couple of times a
week. Blessings to your family. -Scott Turansky
