Life Over Coffee Devotions
Biff has been working to rebuild his life, repenting of his contributions to the marriage’s failure and re-establishing himself in his local church. While the church community recognizes his efforts, Biff struggles to find his place. He feels disconnected from his old friends, out of place in the singles group, and excluded from the married couples’ fellowship.
As Thanksgiving approaches, Biff’s loneliness intensifies. He is tempted to exaggerate his struggles to draw attention and sympathy. With most church families engaged in their plans or traveling, no one has invited him to join them for the holiday. Meanwhile, Mable and the boys are heading out of state to spend Thanksgiving with her parents.
Biff reached out to you for encouragement and guidance. He wants you to help him navigate his loneliness and resist the temptations toward self-pity. He also seeks practical advice on forming meaningful connections within his church during this challenging season of transition and isolation.

His primary responsibilities are resource creation and leadership development, which he does through speaking, writing, podcasting, and educating.
