Take the Coffee

We hope you'll join us for our interview with Nathan Fry from Lens of the Harvest! What an exciting ministry in an area so often neglected by churches and missionaries! I can't even sum up all the topics covered in this episode, so you're going to have to listen for yourself!

Networking... not usually the first thing that comes to mind when you think of ministry, but we find it to be such an important and necessary part of our jobs. In this episode we discuss the administrative responsibilities of  pastors and how these duties affect our ministries! While technology has many downsides, it certainly streamlines communication and administration when used appropriately.

Join us this week for an interview with Pastor and church planter Nick White! It went a little bit longer than usual, but there was so much good conversation we could not stop! You definitely don't want to miss this episode and be sure to stick around for the coffee spot of the week!

Welcome back to part two of our "schools" of thought episodes! In this episode we primarily focus on the benefits and downfalls of homeschooling. Pastor Ethan discusses his experience with homeschooling as well as his observations throughout the years. Pastors TJ and Ethan also talk about future plans regarding the education of their own kids in light of the state of our education system.

Is education really that important? The obvious answer is yes! and does the location and manner of education matter? We discuss in part one of this two part series how education has formed us as well as how it transforms how we minister to unique individuals. Listen now wherever you get your podcasts!

In this weeks episode, we discuss the problem of Christians expecting the world and even other Christians to understand what they are saying while using generally obscure Bible terms and analogies. *Spoiler alert* Really the lesson here is proper communication. How we share the good news may affect the eternal destiny of those to whom we are witnessing and is of the uttermost importance!

This week's episode is not necessarily ABOUT our kids, but how are kids have affected the way we preach, teach, and interact with others. While we make no claims of being "professionals", there are still many valuable lessons we have learned from our journey of being parents.

This episode discussed, well, our marriages we talk about our wise aid and assistance in our respective ministries as well as minister themselves to our local churches we also share some of the backstory on how we met them and how we knew that they were “the one”,

Merry Christmas from Take the Coffee! We will be taking the holidays off but enjoy this discussion on how to gift coffee as well as the vast availability of coffee subscriptions!
