Coffee With the Bishop

Coffee With the Bishop

This lively mix of one-on-one reflections on scripture and group conversations is an opportunity to spend time with Bishop Daniel P. Richards and his guests over a hot cup of coffee. Hear stories about life as an Episcopalian, meet friends from our diocese, take a front-row seat in rousing theological debates, and study scripture all with our diocese's chief pastor. And, as a former professional coffee cupper, you can count on some deep-dives into the world of coffee. The Rt. Rev Daniel P. Richards is the ninth bishop of EDUSC, an avid runner, and keeper of a vast array of trivia.
