  • Coffee time with John

    I recently discovered this podcast from the other side of the world and instantly loved it! It’s like sitting down for coffee time with John each day as he reads and expands on scripture, highlighting context and deeper meanings, and how it applies to your life. What a gift to be able to glean from such a wise, grounded and knowledgable disciple of Jesus. Thank you John!
