God is Green, huh.
Posted by Tom in church, Coffee, eco, Emerging Church, hope, In general, Life, Theology, thoughts on August 1, 2007
I have been listening to the Mars Hill Bible Church, God is Green series. The series has been pretty interesting. A lot of it is stuff I have been trying to practice in my own life. The best part of the series came at the end, on July 29th. The preeminent piece is all the practical information (in the form of a list of websites and books) on how to make simple life changes for a huge positive environmental impact. So, I thought would reproduce the list here below. You can download it directly from the Mars Hill Bible Church website here.
And now for the list:

Starbucks Everywhere
Posted by Tom in Coffee, Coffee Shops, In general, Life, Personal, starbucks on August 9, 2006
I came across this site today while looking for a Starbucks location. starbuckseverywhere.net
Scroll down and you can find just about every Starbucks coffee shop, everywhere. There are even photos and descriptions on some. I know some of you are going to love this, if you don’t already.
I personally, am not the biggest fan of Starbucks coffee, I’m more of a home grown mom and pop coffee shop kinda guy. However I do appreciate how they treat their employees, and occasionally I’ll drop in for a cup of candy.
enjoy
