In the combination of pastor and coffee house you find an opportunity sit with a friend and delve into the mysterious workings of a very real and very personal God. A coffee house never thinks twice about the couple arguing, the girlfriends laughing, or the group of men commiserating.
There is no judgment in what is said over a cup of java....except of course from those that like their coffee black towards those of us that like frilly creamers.
I happen to love church. I have enjoyed my endeavors into the debate over what makes a ministry effective, or exciting, or relevant....whatever the current buzz word may be. Church and community are crucial to the faith journey I am daily committing to.
There is church that happens, however, in the face to face we can have in manageable, intimate places....like perhaps, a coffee house.
That is what I would like this place to be.
I think I am going to like this conversation....I hope you do as well.
