Save the NEW Date for the next event in our Virtual SHAPE Parenting Series: Discipline That Connects with a Child’s Heart with Connected Families Ministry! On Tuesday, November 10 from 12:30-2:00, grab a cup of coffee and join us online as we learn from Lynne Jackson, co-founder of Connected Families. What kids learn when they are disciplined will last a lifetime.
But, well- intentioned parents miss their kids’ hearts during discipline. It happens all the time. Instead of building the wisdom and respect they hope for, parents inadvertently build discouragement and resentment, which drives their kids to misbehave more. But it doesn’t have to be that way!
Lynne has over 25 years of experience as both a parent to three intense children and a pediatric occupational therapist. As a speaker, certified life coach, and author, she has helped thousands of parents learn to be peaceful, purposeful, and confident. Be on the lookout for an email soon with the link to sign up for the keynote address you won’t want to miss! For more about their program, Discipline That Connects, please visit their website.
PAST SHAPE EVENTS:

Virtual Presentation: Social Emotional Strategies in Early Childhood with Katie Balderston
We are passionate about building healthy brains through research-driven curriculum experiences starting with our youngest students. We use our time with your children intentionally to build relationships, help them feel safe, and model God’s love for His most important creation: His children. We are thankful to partner with you on that journey and we take that responsibility seriously.
