These stories range from humorous cultural surprises to intense moments of danger—each pointing back to God’s faithfulness and protection.
Readers will find themselves laughing, learning, and sometimes holding their breath, as Joe recounts his family’s missionary journey in Ghana and Ivory Coast. It’s a book that not only entertains but also inspires a deeper faith.
Coffee + Missions = A Life of Purpose
What makes HOTS Coffee unique is the connection between your morning coffee and global missions. Every purchase helps fund trips, training, and practical outreach in West Africa. When you grab your latte or iced Americano, you’re playing a role in stories like those found in That’s My Goat.
