The Darin Sargent Podcast

Stop Waiting for the Perfect Time — Part Two: Why Your Next Step Matters More Than Your Circumstances What if the clarity you've been waiting for only comes after you take the next step? We all want to understand where our lives are headed. We want confidence in our decisions, certainty about our purpose, and some assurance that things will work out before we begin. But sometimes, the understandin...

PART ONE Stop Waiting for the Perfect Time: Why Your Next Step Matters More Than Your Circumstances What if the perfect time you've been waiting for never comes? We all have things we want to accomplish, decisions we need to make, and opportunities we hope to pursue. But too often, we convince ourselves that we need better circumstances, more confidence, or greater certainty before taking the next...

What if the thing you’ve viewed as your greatest limitation doesn’t get to determine your future? Born with one hand, Darin Sargent knows what it means to live with something you cannot change. But over the years, he’s discovered an important truth: a limitation can be real without becoming a verdict. In this episode, Darin explores the difference between acknowledging your limitations and allowin...

The Power of Security — What Kids Need to Feel Safe Enough to Believe Before a child can trust a God they cannot see, they need to trust the people they can. Security isn't just an emotional need — for a child developing faith, it is the soil that everything else grows in. A home that is unpredictable, volatile, or conditional will make trusting God feel impossible. But a home that is stable, cons...

Giving Your Kids an Identity Before the World Does There is a war going on for your child's identity — and it started before they were old enough to know what identity even means. By the time your child is a teenager, culture, social media, and peers will have told them thousands of times who they are, what they're worth, and where they belong. The question isn't whether someone is going to define...

Why Love Is a Leadership Decision Most parents assume love comes naturally — and in many ways it does. But loving your child and leading your child with love are two completely different things. In this first episode of the Developing Faith at Home mini-series, Darin Sargent opens Module 1 with a conversation that could change the entire culture of your home. Love without intention becomes invisib...

In this episode, Darin gives a personal update on his book Parenting with Purpose: Five Foundations to Shape the Next Generation — then takes listeners inside the Introduction and Chapter One for an honest, unfiltered look at Scripture's most dysfunctional families. From Adam and Eve to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and David, the Bible doesn't give us a single flawless parenting model. What it gives us...

Every home has a culture. The question is whether you built it on purpose. In this episode, we unpack what it actually means to create a purposeful culture inside your home, and it's not what most people think. It's not about adding more programs, more devotionals, or more structure to an already full calendar. It's about the atmosphere you maintain, the emotional safety you offer, and the everyda...

Every Christian parent wants to raise kids who love God and know who they are, but in the middle of busy schedules, screen time, and a culture pulling hard in every direction, the conversations that matter most are the ones that never seem to happen. In this episode, we get practical and talk about  five real conversations you can start having with your kids this week.  From creating a safe place...

What happens when you ask an AI to evaluate you? It calls you visionary. Impactful. Remarkable. And for about thirty seconds, it feels great, until you realize it has no idea who you actually are. It just told you what you wanted to hear. That's fine for adults who know the difference. But millions of teenagers are having that same conversation every day, at the exact age when the answers are supp...

Your family doesn't need more of your accomplishments. They need more of your eyes. In this episode, Darin breaks down the Three A's — Attention, Affection, and Availability — and why connection is marinated, not microwaved. A practical, honest conversation for every parent who wants to be more than just present. To preorder Parenting with Purpose visit  https://pentecostalpublishing.com/products/...

Why I Wrote Parenting with Purpose The long days eventually give way to short years — and what we build into our children during the ordinary moments of life becomes the foundation for everything else. In this episode, Darin Sargent takes you inside his brand-new book, Parenting with Purpose: Five Foundations for Shaping the Next Generation. From why he wrote it, to the honest reality of flawed fa...

The most influential leaders most of us will ever encounter never had a title. They had a kitchen table, a bedtime routine, and a willingness to show up for the people in their house every single day — whether anyone was watching or not. In this episode, Darin shares two stories from his own family that changed the way he sees leadership forever. The story of his grandfather Sid Sargent — a loggin...

Life doesn't always pause to ask if you're ready. Over the last several months, the Sargent family has walked through one of those stretches where everything seems to shift at once — the loss of a mother-in-law, the loss of a beloved family pet, children moving in and back out again, and all the quiet grief and transition that comes with each of those things. The kind of season that doesn't make t...
