  • Episode Six: Where Do We Go From Here?
    2026/02/10

    Thank you for joining us again for Coffee & Calling.

    In this episode we go over some of the more frequently asked questions we have received, and discuss what we did, after we left the retreat, the birth of our rainbow baby, and how Island Espresso went from a little trailer to a full shop.

    We hope Coffee & Calling is both an encouragement to other ministry families and a ministry to other Christians. We are just getting started, and we would love for you to join us on this journey!

    We are Sam and Nicole. We are homeschooling and raising our 5 children on the Forgotten Coast and we also own and run our own coffee shop on an Island, called Island Espresso! Our vision is not just coffee, but to pour into other ministry families, through one day building a sabbatical retreat center and offering free stays to ministry families.
