    Episode 27: Disappointment - God on Trial
    May 15 2026
    Have you ever put God 'on trial' because of your disappointments? Life is full of joys, but it can also be full of frustrations, both small and overwhelmingly huge. These can affect not only our lives in terms of practical stuff, but spiritually too. Join us for an honest and challenging discussion about navigating disappointment and about how our God is still good through it all.

    Episode 26: When I Think About Money
    May 1 2026
    Money is a topic we often shy away from - it can be uncomfortable to talk about, especially when our financial situations are feeling pretty bleak. But in the midst of it all, we have a God who cares for us and who provides for our every need, even when we sometimes feel like He doesn't see the struggle. Join us for an honest conversation about money, provision, and trusting God in it all. If you're struggling with finances, don't struggle alone.

    Episode 24: Pride vs Confidence
    Mar 7 2025
    They say that pride comes before a fall, but shouldn't we be "proud" of our achievements, how far we've come, and of friends and family? What's the difference between pride and confidence? Can we be confident without pride coming into the equation? Join us for another episode of Coffee Catch-Ups, where we discuss all of this and more, including what the Bible says about all of this!
