Jake's Journey: Finding Grace and Faith in Friendship Over Coffee Amid Doubt

Glimpses of Grace #19 | Jake #3 – Coffee and Company

💌 A Note of Gratitude

Dear Jesus24365 Family,

Thank you for journeying with us each week as we explore how grace meets us in unexpected places. Today’s glimpse brings us back to Jake—a skeptical seeker who wrestles with belief in the real world. And sometimes, belief shows up not in lightning bolts… but in little moments.

☕ When Grace Pulls Up a Chair

Jake isn’t the type to lead a Bible study or post Scripture verses. But he shows up. Every Saturday morning, same booth, same coffee, same friend across the table. And somehow, between the quiet sips and shared silences, he’s learning that grace doesn’t always need answers—it just needs presence.

This week’s comic—“Coffee and Company”—captures that sacred space.

Jake’s speech bubble says it all:

“Grace sometimes looks like a shared nod over coffee.”

And maybe that’s all some of us need right now—a reminder that God moves even when the words are few.

📖 Bible Study #1: Proverbs 27:9

“Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart, and the pleasantness of a friend springs from their heartfelt advice.”

💬 Jake’s Reflection:

"Some days, it’s not about fixing anything. It’s about not being alone while you figure it out."

👀 Consider This:

• Who listens without pushing a solution?

• What would it look like to show up for someone—just as you are?

📖 Bible Study #2: Ecclesiastes 4:9–10

“Two are better than one… If either of them falls down, one can help the other up.”

💬 Jake’s Reflection:

"Ron doesn’t preach at me. He just sits beside me. That’s what keeps me coming back."

👀 Consider This:

• Do your friendships give space for honesty and doubt?

• Is someone in your life waiting for you to simply sit with them?

📖 Bible Study #3: Hebrews 10:24–25

“Let us consider how we may spur one another on… not giving up meeting together… but encouraging one another…”

💬 Jake’s Reflection:

"Grace doesn’t shout. It waits. And sometimes, it waits in a booth with black coffee."

👀 Consider This:

• How might God be using you to encourage someone quietly this week?

• What rhythms in your life are creating space for faith to grow naturally?

🔥 This Week’s Challenge – Presence Over Proof
