Today we are joined by student pastor, John MacTaggart and student minister Christian Rodriguez to discuss student ministry and how to partner with parents. We then delve into ‘the four-legged stool' that they implement in student ministry at Family Church, where it came from, and how our guests use it in their ministry. Today we focus on the first ‘leg' of the stool; partnering with parents as our guests tell us how they create a sense of community within their student ministry, how they connect with parents and disciple their children alongside them, and so much more! We even discuss some important values we, at Family Church, like to instill in our children before John and Christian share advice for anyone in ministry wanting to connect with their students. Key Points: The biblical foundations of student ministry and why it's so important. A breakdown of ‘the four-legged stool' and how Family Church developed it. How they disciple the children in their church alongside their parents. The milestones they emphasize for both children and their parents. How John and Christian connect with the parents of the students the disciple. The kinds of questions parents as student ministers and their potential solutions.

In this episode, we delve deep into the complex challenges often faced by students in urban areas - obstacles compounded by factors such as race, gender, social class, and more. Our guest is none other than Tyrone Howard, the President of AERA and a national authority in urban education. Howard brings his extensive knowledge and experience to the table, providing valuable insights and guidance for educators and leaders. He emphasizes the crucial role of listening to parents and students, encouraging them to actively participate in cultivating a thriving school culture where every student feels a sense of belonging while fostering a passion for learning. Additionally, Howard advocates for an organic and holistic approach to data collection in education, focusing on truly hearing what students have to say. This, he believes, is essential for shaping school policies that genuinely reflect students' needs and are specifically tailored to guarantee their success.

Dr. Kristi Smith shares practical tips and suggestions for building bridges between school and home, partnering with parents in the educational process, and specifically navigating conferences with parents. “I am here to share my context and my experiences, and to network and partner with educators in what they are doing. It's through that partnership and that interchange of information that we become stronger as a whole.” “A parent is a child's best teacher.” -Dr. Brazelton “Outside of school and church, most children and adults spend the majority of their time in small group settings instead of large group instructional settings. People behave differently in large groups than they do in small groups.” “[Parents] know their child better than I can ever know them, and it's important for us to work together in partnership.” “Partnering with parents is helping us to come together to help the children become independent, successful future learners.” “If we approach it as a relational event versus telling them what their child is doing or not doing, then it changes this to a conversation instead of a lecture. We have to remember that this is a partnership to train a child in the way that they need to go.” “When a parent finds someone reaching to them to try to meet them at their point of need, relationship gets built and barriers start falling down and positive steps go forward.” “Any partnership is better than none at all. How can we meet that parent where they're at?” “We need to have constant communication with accurate information.” “I'm seeing XYZ. What are you seeing at home? Do you have any tips for me?” “Stay strong. It takes time. Bridging home to school actually takes time, but in the long run, it pays off. It pays off not only for you in the class, but it pays off for that child and for that family.” Join TeachBeyond's Day of Giving here!

How can youth workers be agents of reconciliation between parents and students during conflicts without taking sides? Learn more about Walt's ministry at the Center for Parent/Youth Understanding, checkout his long-form weekly podcast Youth Culture Matters, one-minute daily podcast Youth Culture Today.

What is the greatest influence on the faith of your youth? If you guessed youth leaders, or pastors, then you would most likely be wrong. Actually the greatest influence is parents.

In this episode of the Student Ministry Conversations podcast we are joined by Walt Mueller, one of the leading voices in youth culture research and in equipping parents and youth leaders to lead this generation if students into a strong, vibrant faith.

This week, Abby—fresh off of parent-teacher conferences for her own kids—prompted us to think about the question, “What are some ways that we, as schools and teachers, can partner well with parents in the education of their kids?” We think both broadly about what “partnership” means, and more specifically about some particular things educators can do to build bridges between home and school, including “good calls home,” three-way conferences between teachers, parents, and students, and school-wide celebrations of learning. Whether you are a parent, a teacher, or a school leader, we hope this episode is an encouragement to you in fostering partnerships!
