How Do You Stay in the Fight When Life Gets Hard?

from Breaking Bread: Stories of Faith & Conversion · host Brian Horvath and Gil Alfonso

What do you do when life gets hard… not because everything fell apart, but because you’re simply tired?This week on Breaking Bread: Stories of Faith & Conversion, we’re breaking bread around a question many people carry quietly: How do you stay in the fight when quitting feels easier than continuing?Recorded live from Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Miami, Florida, we’re joined by Christian Machado from St. Timothy — Emmaus brother, boxer, coach, and founder of AMA Boxing Club — who shares how discipline, faith, and community help us keep showing up when life feels heavy. From the gym to prayer, from exhaustion to gratitude, this conversation reminds us that staying in the fight doesn’t always mean winning — sometimes it simply means not quitting today.Along the way, we talk about consistency, burnout, gratitude as a “cheat code,” faith in everyday life, and how God meets us right where we are — even when we’re running on empty.If you’ve ever felt worn down but still trying, this episode is for you.📍 Recorded live on Radio Maria 📲 Follow us on Instagram: @breakingbreadradio🌐 Website: www.BreakingBreadShow.comPull up a chair — the table is always open.
