A Cup of Connection: My Journey from Montana Mountains to His Word Coffee

Every sip of coffee has a story, doesn’t it? My journey with coffee began on a crisp morning in the mountains of Montana when I was a young child. This was decades ago, but the memory is still fresh. It was there, amidst the towering pines and under a sky painted with the first light of dawn, that I discovered not just the taste of coffee but the warmth of shared moments it brings.

I can still remember my first cup of coffee. It was a cool summer morning with my grandfather, where we camped in the wilderness and woke up early to have a full day of horseback riding. After my grandfather woke up, he started a fire and got his morning coffee brewing. With the flames crackling and the cool morning air being overtaken by the warmth of the fire and the rising sun, my grandpa was making his coffee over an open campfire. I was curious why everyone always enjoyed the coffee, but I had never been allowed to have it because I was too young.

My grandfather brewed his coffee in a percolator pot that hung over the fire like a promise. The aroma filled the air, rich and inviting. I was young, more accustomed to hot chocolate than coffee, but something about that moment—the fire, the mountains, the man I admired so much making his morning brew—made me ask if I could try it.

My grandfather looked at me, a twinkle in his eye, and poured a small cup. The coffee was harsh, a shock to my inexperienced palate, but it was accompanied by a chuckle and a saying I’d come to remember: "It'll put some hair on your chest." It was more than the taste; it was the warmth of the fire, the beauty of the sunrise, and the company I was in that brewed a sense of belonging and joy in me.

Fast forward through the tapestry of years, and here I am, the co-founder of His Word Coffee with my wife. That first sip of coffee, shared in the silence of the Montana mountains with my grandfather, ignited a passion in me. It taught me that coffee is more than a beverage; it's a creator of moments, a builder of connections, a comforter, and a companion.

At His Word Coffee, we cherish the stories that each cup of coffee tells. We believe in the power of these moments to bring people together, to stir memories, and to create new ones. Our goal is to bring you the freshest, most flavorful coffee, hoping that it will be part of your moments, your stories, your connections with others and with God.

Coffee, for me, began as a harsh taste on a beautiful morning, a shared experience that bridged generations. It has since become my passion, a way to reach out and touch the lives of others, bringing a bit of warmth and connection in every cup.

Here's to the stories we share, the memories we make, and the connections we forge—all over a great cup of coffee. Welcome to His Word Coffee.
