The "Bean"

In Hong Kong, I went to Starbucks to get a cup of coffee.  I noticed their advertisement and took this picture.  I thought Starbucks shares their story clearly and simply.  It made me think:  Can we share the Gospel and the Christian story with such clarity and simplicity?  

Starbucks knows the process of maturing the "bean" to make coffee.  Are you engaged in the process of helping christians mature?  

Starbucks is attempting to reach the world with the coffee bean.  Are you meaningfully involved in reaching the world with the Good News of Christ?

Starbucks knows that the rich flavor of coffee only comes out of the bean when it is roasted and put in hot water.  What comes out of us when we go through the fire or find ourselves in hot water?  

Starbucks - reaching the world one bean at a time?   Can I say, Christian - are you reaching the world by "bean" (being) an ambassador of Christ right where you are?  

Join us and other "beans" (beings) for excursions to Asia this summer.  For more information, go to www.e3leadershipgroup.net.

from one “bean” to another.
