About One Rule Home
One Rule Home, founded by Jeff Schadt, was created to extend the mission of Revive
Family—bringing hope and healing to families.
We help parents create emotionally safe environments where openness, honesty, and
connection can flourish. Our approach is both compassionate and
countercultural—offering a new way forward when traditional methods fall short.
Through the Leading with Love online course, transformative books, and both group
and individual coaching, we equip parents with tools to understand what’s really going
on beneath their child’s behavior. We’ve seen broken relationships restored, parents
move from confusion to clarity, and kids who were angry, anxious, or shutting down
begin to feel safe, seen, and connected.
Each of our coaches has faced their own parenting challenges—and found life-changing
insight through Jeff’s research and approach. We’re here to walk with you as you seek
understanding, healing, and peace in your home.

Bob Hernon, Parent
"I had the privilege of hearing Jeff last night at my church. I have to say, as my kids are all now mostly out of the house, Read More I wish I had heard this message 24 years ago. Jeff is spot on!

From a pastor / campus minister and father of three
"This organization has proven skills any parent can learn how to develop that will improve relationships with their children. It has helped us communicate and connect with ours!"
Patty DeFore Ladd, Parent
"We first heard of YTN about 3 years ago and began attending seminars at local churches. Read More We brought DVD and CDS home to continue learning how to parent our three pre-teen daughters. Our transformation as a family truly began when we enrolled in classes offered at out church. With other parents, we journeyed through videos and a workbook to better understand what is going on in the hearts and minds of teenagers and how to stand beside them as guides, instead of dictators. We highly recommend this class and video series....anything from YTN! to all parents with pre-teens and teens at home."
Christina Reger Smith, Parent
"We were first introduced to YTN 3 years ago. My husband and I were very eager to implement the things we learned through Read More "Secrets of Influential Parenting" in our family. Suddenly the upcoming teen years didn't seem like something we should fear, but instead an awesome opportunity to raise adults who will go out into the world and thrive! The changes I've seen in my kids and how we parent has changed for the better since we went through the small group study. As a testament to how well it works, every time I start to butt in and take the control back that I've given my kids it always goes sour. It's amazing that when I step back and get out of the way how much smoother life is. I learned that kids want responsibility. As parents it's our job to give it to them. Of course they aren't perfect and mistakes will be made, but isn't it better for kids to learn and mess up while Mom and Dad are around? I went out of town for 10 days in November for surgery and you know what? The kids rose to the occasion and did an excellent job taking care of life while mom was gone. Making dinner, walking home from school, getting homework done before Dad got home from work... it was a pleasure to see them thrive under responsibility. That's what it's all about! I can't say enough good things about "Secrets of Influential Parenting."

Meanwhile, things began to turn around for Jeff as he began applying his research at home. It all came to a head the night before Jeff was supposed to give his first sermon.
But something was still missing. Jeff could see the effect his research and methods had on kids, but he still suffered from codependency and domestic violence. In his recovery from domestic violence Jeff uncovered two keys to healing:
- How the amygdala stores trauma in the body
- The power of heart-level healing
Our Experience We are a non-profit called “Revive Family” that is here to help!
As parents it is easy to feel like we are failing. Yet…. it is often said we learn more from our failures, than our successes. Maybe it’s time to adopt a new and more positive perspective of your role in your kids’ lives as they transition from being a child to an adolescent and especially as they become a teen. What you learn will make a world of difference in your home.
We may feel like we are trapped, in a difficult situation, we become frustrated, lose hope, and may want to give up. The One Rule Home restores hope and shifts how we see ourselves as parents and the role we play in our kids’ lives. Whether things are going ok, or you have a challenging child, pre-teen or teen, sometimes all we need is to see our situation differently.
The One Rule Home, with its resources and support lead families to a better place. We have been told by society that it’s not possible to have close relationships during the adolescent years, but this is simply not true. Your family can thrive! Start with One Rule Home today!
