The Darin Sargent Podcast

About

What if the thing that felt like your greatest limitation was actually your greatest qualification? Darin Sargent was born with one hand. And in 35 years of ministry, speaking, and leading families, he's discovered that the people who live with the most purpose aren't the ones who had it easy — they're the ones who decided their limitations didn't get the final word. The Darin Sargent Podcast is for parents, leaders, and families who are done settling for ordinary. Every week, Darin brings honest, faith-driven conversations about raising intentional families, building marriages that last, developing leaders worth following, and discovering the purpose God placed inside you long before your circumstances tried to convince you otherwise. This isn't a podcast about having it all together. It's about showing up for your kids, your spouse, your calling, and the life you were actually created to live. If you've ever felt overlooked, limited, or like you missed your moment — you're in the right place. New episodes every week. Subscribe and start living on purpose.
