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 families in Scripture, to the five foundational pillars that shape the hearts of our children — this is an episode for every parent who has ever felt like they were barely keeping up.

Darin walks through the Five Foundations: Loving, Learning, Living, Leading, and Launching a Legacy — and along the way, shares powerful stories from his own family, including the conversion of his grandfather Sid Sargent, the prayers of a grandmother that are still bearing fruit years after her passing, and the moment he walked his daughter down the aisle and released her into her future.

Whether you're knee-deep in diapers, navigating the teenage years, or watching your grown children find their place in the world — this episode will remind you that what you're doing matters, and that you are not just raising kids.

You're releasing legacy.
