Failure is but a Perspective: Developing the Faith, Confidence, & Perseverance to Progress on the Road Forward with Major League Baseball Rising Star, Pat Monteverde, Ep. 130

The Built Different Podcast with Zach Clinton

Thomas Edison, the great inventor, who made over 1,000 unsuccessful attempts before inventing the lightbulb once said, “Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.” In other words, where there is no struggle, there is no progress, as pain is often our greatest catalyst for growth and change. Today, you’ll be hearing an unlikely story of what it looks like to trust the process within this life. Joining us to share his testimony and some incredible lessons he’s learned throughout a long and winding journey is an incredibly talented professional baseball player and highly anticipated Miami Marlins prospect, Pat Monteverde. Pat just recently had the opportunity of going and representing the Miami Marlins a few days ago in the Futures Game which is held annually during the MLB All-Star week, bringing together the most promising prospects from around the globe to offer fans a glimpse of the talent that will shape the future of the game. However, beyond his athleticism and on-field talent, Pat shares about his unwavering confidence that stemming from his faith in Christ and relentless work ethic. Our prayer is that after listening to today’s episode you would be encouraged and motivated through remembering that your worth, value, and identity are detached from your performance but rather rooted and anchored in Christ. Additionally, no matter what you may be going through, we pray you would remember the words of Galatians 6:9 which says, “Do not grow weary in doing what is right, for in due time, you will reap a harvest if you do not give up.” Keep on, keeping on!
