Welcome back to the Coffee and Bible Time podcast.

For those that may be listening for the first time, our podcast is an offshoot from our main platform YouTube.

Our channel is called Coffee and Bible Time where our goal is to help people delight in God's Word and thrive in Christian living.

We also have a website in storefront with Bible studies, prayer journals, courses, and more.
