Hi,

Growing up in a Lutheran church where my father would say "They worship God and coffee. Not necessarily in that order." I was pleased to come across this Bible Study which shows that coffee is actually a means of receiving grace. I post a link to it so that others may enjoy it-and their coffee.

Quite amazing, since coffee (or Kaffee in German) was not discovered until the 16th century, according to this:

If coffee is a means of Grace... then I have a lot of grace each morning! ;)

Poor Flipper :(

We didn't say it was the only means of Grace.

I'd be with you, if it were the ONLY means. . .I don't drink coffee or tea of any kind.

I didn't either, until our kids came. Babies definitely change your life, and they don't sleep much at night when they are sick. Coffee saved my life back then. I don't drink much of it, but it is an enjoyable thing to do each morning. I only drink one mug of coffee a day. Sometimes I have iced tea during the summer months. Milk is one of my favorites to drink with a meal. :holy:
