From Crack House to Coffeehouse

I did a show-n-tell during last weekend's message because I was talking about altars and the fact that we need physical reminders of spiritual lessons we've learned along the way. I wanted to share some of the backstory behind Ebenezers because historicity is what makes the place so cool.

One of the things I showed was a liquor bottle I have in my office. Ebenezers used to be a crack house where people got drunk or got high. That bottle represents redemption. I have it sitting in my office as reminder that God is in the redemption business.

From crack house to Coffeehouse.

Nice. It's kinda cool to set that bottle as kind of an "ebenezer" for redemption.
