Ep 31: When You Feel Like Giving Up, Watch This
If you are feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, or ready to throw in the towel on your marriage, family, or faith—this episode was recorded specifically for you.
In Episode 31 of DC Table Talk, Bryan Evans and Pastor Rodney Thrift unpack what it actually takes to endure when life gets heavy. From personal struggles with physical pain and loss to unpacking spiritual stamina, they explore why our default response under pressure is often panic or coasting. Discover why Caleb at 85 years old asked for a mountain instead of retirement, why Jesus never told weary people to "try harder," and why the greatest threat to your faith isn't quitting what you believe—it's losing your fire.
In this episode, we discuss:
