I'm going to trial 'Lean Coffee' to run the mens bible study tomorrow. https://agilecoffee.com/leancoffee/ . I've three parables (The growing seed, The two Debtors, and a lamp under a bushel) for us to study. Due to 'dead mans shoes' I've become the new leader. Will be curious to see how it goes. #Bible #LeanCoffee #Agile #Parables #Christian #Religion
