Coffee With Jesus
Do you ever feel like God isn't with you? Sometimes, when going through life's storms, it can be hard to feel God's presence. However, He has promised to never leave us or forsake us. When you have hit Rock Bottom, it can seem like God has left you, but our Lord will NEVER abandon you. Since 2020, things have been so difficult for everyone. Coffee With Jesus was started to provide hope and comfort to others. Join our hosts, Todd Uebele and Sara van Driel, and their guests as they share how God was their rock through trying periods of their lives. They share their stories to uplift and encourage you as you step through life.
