You scroll through your feed online and see your friend’s kids playing so well together in all of their pictures with smiles so broad you could almost hear the laughter and joy. Another friend has a picture of her family sitting down together enjoying the latest dinner recipe she tried, and of course, it looks amazing. She even coordinated the centerpiece and candles with the meal. Oh, and did you also notice the kitchen in the background and how it looks like someone from HGTV stopped by to make it just perfect?

Then some yelling brings you back to your reality. You look up from your phone.

The yelling is coming from the playroom. Your kids are fighting about that same toy again despite you telling them way, way, way too many times to stop. You tried showing them how to share it, but that didn’t seem to work.

Now you realize it’s getting later and that you have no inspiration for what to make for dinner because you know no matter what you make, your kids are just going to complain and fuss like usual. Do they even make coordinating centerpieces and candles for chicken nuggets and mac n’ cheese?

Oh, and don’t look now but there’s another mess in the kitchen that needs to get picked up before you can even start prepping this meal. Your kids made that mess hours ago. You told them to clean it up at least three times since then, and you know it won’t get cleaned up until you get angry and possibly start screaming, and even then your kids will do the bare minimum.

I’m B.J. Meurer.  I’ve worked with children for over two decades as an educator.  During these years, I’ve always been drawn to working with children who find learning difficult.  I love helping kids discover the joy of learning and empowering them with the tools they need to continue growing and learning for themselves.  

 But over the years, my heart has broken as I’ve seen behind these kids are real families with real needs for learning as well.  Families who were struggling with how to get kids to follow directions, treat others kindly, and act responsibly.  

 Many years earlier, when my wife and I began raising our first child, we found the National Center for Biblical Parenting.  We put their heart-based tools and strategies into practice with our own family, and we even used their coaching services at times.  We saw and experienced for ourselves how Jesus could bring about transformation in family life when parents used a heart-based approach.  

 I taught some parenting classes at my church and helped out in the Children’s Ministry using many of the heart-based tools my wife and I had learned and used with our kids.  Families who took these tools and put them into practice in their families saw transformation.

 After years of watching too many families struggle, I decided I needed to shift my focus and become a certified Biblical Parenting Coach and Presenter through the National Center for Biblical Parenting.  

"Working with B.J. has helped us to create a home environment of peace and delight, something that we have dreamed of."

As a Biblical Parenting Coach, I began working with families and found I was truly focusing on what children and families needed most:  tools and strategies to bring about heart change. 

 Over the course of 8 weeks, I meet weekly with parents, help them through our online training materials, and provide individualized feedback about how the tools they are learning about can be used to address specific problems their children are facing right now. 

We discuss real problems they are facing, and together we brainstorm practical, heart-based solutions they can use with their kids that same day.

I remember working with one young family facing some of the very same challenges you are probably facing in your family.  They loved Jesus and really wanted to do this parenting thing well  but just felt like they needed some guidance and support.  When they came to me, Mom said, “We have some decent ideas on parenting but a lot it just feels like we’re making it up as we go. 

Dad was watching his son and daughter in the backyard when his son started to treat his sister poorly.  Out of nowhere, Dad found himself offering a quick word of advice to his son that addressed his son’s heart and turned the behavior around before it escalated.  On the phone that night Dad said to me, “I had no idea where what I said came from.  Then I realized it was something you taught us, but now it just naturally fit me.  So I went with it, and it worked!” 

Day by day, little by little, this Mom and Dad watched God move in their family and bring transformation as they implemented a heart-based approach to parenting. 

It worked for them, and it can work for you, too.

If you stopped by our home, you’d see a lot of action.  My wife and I have eight kids of our own.  Our home is filled with homeschool supplies and lots and lots of books.  The zipline and trampoline in the backyard get plenty of daily use.  Our favorite times here are when we are all curled up together by the wood-burning stove playing a board game or watching a movie, especially when it also involves having other family and friends over as well.  

But they also have Dad stories of where I’ve kept on trying.  Where I’ve prayerfully approached a parenting situation and asked Jesus for help.  

Where I’ve used the same heart-based approach parenting principles I teach others to use, and where we have seen breakthroughs in behavior, changes in hearts, and transformations in our family life.

No, we don’t have perfect kids.  No, we don’t have perfect meals, and no, we certainly don’t have the perfect home. 

But then again, perfection is not the goal - heart change is.  

It worked for us , and it can work for you, too.

In our home, we have a small wooden sign I made several years ago.  It simply reads “Jesus Never Fails.”  The truth is, when we ask Jesus to help us with our parenting and focus on the heart like He does, we see transformation happen in our kids and families.

It’s time for you to take the next step and get the tools and strategies you need to help you with your parenting.
