Coffee Time Conversations: Art, Faith, Life and of course, Coffee.

We're happy to continue our conversation with  Corella Roberts in today's episode.  We talk about why she writes about soul care and soul restoration. We talk specifically about a series of posts she wrote over the summer called Seasons of the Soul and so much more. Join us and let Corella encourage you in the Lord.

Born and raised in northern Idaho, Corella's love for books and writing developed at an early age as her imagination was her only playmate for miles. After high school, she ventured off to St. Paul, MN where she earned a degree from University of Northwestern and first heard the call to be a missionary teacher. She married her high school sweetheart, Troy Roberts, and they moved to teach in a village of about fifty people in bush Alaska. After seven years, during which time they almost gave up on missions entirely, God saw fit to rekindle their desire to teach in unreached parts of the world, and they moved to Chiang Rai, Thailand. They have two spunky children who love cats and hamsters, they eat cheap Thai food to their hearts' content, and they support the amazing community of missionaries there through teaching and organizing community events. Recently, God has invited Corella to return to her passion for writing, and she published a book, Colliding with the Call, about the literal and spiritual wilderness she experienced in Alaska, and the surprise of finding God's fingerprints all over that part of her story.

We are really happy to be introducing you to Corella Roberts today.  I (Robert) got to know of her through hope*writers. She's an  author, blogger, teacher, mom and missionary. Today, we talk about her book which was released last year, her writing journey and of course, faith. It's an encouraging story about how God can and does use unlikely, uncertain circumstances to grow you and shape you into who he wants you to be.

We are thrilled to be talking with Philip Klayman today. Philip is one of the founders of Three Tree Coffee, a specialty coffee roaster with a three-fold mission to Empower Farmers, End Human Trafficking and Engage the Community.  I first ran across Three Tree Coffee Roasters when I saw an Ad for their partnership with Compassion International, which is about their Brewing Hope Coffee Subscription. After looking into them a little bit, I just need we had to have him on the show to share about their business and their three-fold mission.

Philip also provides small business consulting and bookkeeping to clients in food service and other retail industries.  Having worked in a local church and currently being engaged in entrepreneurship, Philip is passionate about holistic and sustainable business-as-mission (BAM) models to glorify God and bless the nations.  Philip lives with his wife, Anna, and four children in Statesboro, GA. 

Join us as we talk about how he and his wife started roasting coffee, how it's developed into a multi-site business including four coffee shops, two of which are on college campuses, and how they keep on mission with their employees and customers.
