Built on Truth

Training for Eternity: Jiu Jitsu, Fatherhood, and Faith with Rob Denton


Listen Later

Rob Denton joins Built on Truth to share a powerful story of transformation—from a troubled childhood on the North Shore of Hawaii to becoming a faithful father, jiu-jitsu coach, and man of God.

In this conversation, Rob opens up about the pivotal moments that shaped him: his brother’s imprisonment, a season of rebellion and aimlessness, and the turning point when the Holy Spirit convicted him to take his faith seriously. What followed was a lifelong pursuit of obedience, Scripture, and truth—one that now shapes how he raises his children, coaches young athletes, and navigates the daily grind of fatherhood.

We cover:
→ Why hardship is often the gateway to holy purpose
→ How to worship God through sport and competition
→ The tension between ambition and stewardship
→ What it really means to “fear the Lord”
→ Practical ways to raise strong Christian kids in a loud, distracted world
→ The one thing every believer must do—before another workout, project, or podcast

Whether you're a father, coach, athlete, or man trying to live with intention, this episode will push you toward truth that lasts.
