A friend first showed me Sozo Coffeehouse as a cool place to study. At the time, I was working remotely and taking all online classes, so I was getting tired of being at home all the time. Sozo felt like a safe, welcoming place to get work done. 

Coincidentally, during my second week going there, I came in on Tuesday. I didn’t realize they closed early for Bible study, but I had already shown up with my Bible in hand, planning to read after finishing some homework. As everyone else was leaving, Chad (the director) came up to me and let me know there was a Bible study happening and invited me to join. 

Ever since then, I’ve really enjoyed the community and being around believers from different denominations, backgrounds, and experiences. That community has helped me grow in my faith and strengthen my commitment to living a Christ centered life.
