His Time, Not Mine

What happens when God's timing doesn't match our own? This week, Brian and Gil sit down with longtime Emmaus brother Ruben Barboza to discuss waiting on God, trusting His plan, family, service, and the ongoing journey of conversion. Plus, the return of Richard's Rabbit Hole and our newest game, The Emmaus Panic Button!

Waiting Isn't Wasted

What do we do when life doesn't go according to plan? This week, we're joined by our Emmaus sister and dear friend, Diana Carolina Gutierrez, for a heartfelt conversation about trusting God's timing, walking through seasons of uncertainty, and discovering that some of His greatest work happens while we wait. We also debut a brand-new segment, Richard's Rabbit Hole, as our favorite Lost Sheep, Richard Palmer, takes us down another fascinating and unexpected path before we pull up a chair with Diana. If you've been waiting for answers, healing, direction, or simply wondering what God is doing in your life right now, this episode is for you. Because with God... waiting isn't wasted. 🎙️ Recorded live at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in Miami, Florida. 📱 Follow us on Instagram and Facebook: @breakingbreadradio. www.breakingbreadshow.com

The Freedom Only Christ Can Offer | Independence Day Special

As America celebrates Independence Day and 250 years of freedom, we're asking a different question: What does it really mean to be free? This week, our Emmaus brother Samuel Albis joins us for an honest conversation about searching, surrender, and discovering the freedom that only Christ can offer. Through seasons of doubt, disappointment, and grace, Samuel shares how God continued calling him closer—and how true freedom isn't found in doing whatever we want, but in trusting Christ with our lives. We also kick off our First Annual Breaking Bread Independence Challenge, featuring laughs, friendly competition, and a Fourth of July celebration unlike any we've done before.

The Doors We Leave Open

What if some of the things we've always considered harmless deserve a second look? This week, Benny Lopez returns to Breaking Bread for a conversation about spiritual warfare, superstition, discernment, and where we place our trust. Together, we explore the evil eye, lucky charms, New Age practices, and other everyday beliefs through the lens of the Catholic faith. Plus, before the conversation begins, the Breaking Bread crew goes head-to-head in our first-ever Superstition World Cup, a fun World Cup-inspired trivia game featuring bizarre superstitions from around the globe.

The Lost Sheep

How far can someone wander before God brings them home? This week on Breaking Bread: Stories of Faith & Conversion, Brian Horvath and Gil Alfonso sit down with Richard Palmer, Audio Engineer for Radio Maria USA and one of the people working behind the scenes to help bring Catholic radio to listeners across the country. Before sharing his powerful conversion story, Richard takes us into the fascinating world of paranormal research, discussing how he became involved, some of his most memorable experiences, and common misconceptions about the paranormal. The conversation then turns to Richard's own faith journey. After experiencing God's love at a young age, he spent years searching for truth in unexpected places, including paganism and alternative spiritual paths. But through it all, God never stopped pursuing him. Join us for an honest and engaging conversation about searching, wandering, second chances, and the realization that no one is ever too far from God's mercy.
