Coffee and Clay Podcast

Coffee and Clay Podcast

The purpose of Coffee and Clay is to expose our listeners to other Christians in the universal church. Many times, we get so focused and comfortable with our local groups, communities, and parishes. With that, it becomes easy to get tunnel vision and get in the mindset that our faith should only look a certain way. We want our listeners and readers to be able to get a small glimpse of how our faith is affected and/or plays a role in people’s lives who are in all different walks of life. In turn, we hope that it can expand their horizons, allow them to see our faith in a different light, and to grow in their own humanity.
