{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Coffee With Hales","slug":"coffeewithhales","podcastDescription":"

Welcome to Coffee with Hales! Here, we explore mini-homesteading, backyard chickens, conspiracies, technocracy, politics, and culture — all through a lens of curiosity and discernment, examining how a biblical worldview can shape practical living in everyday life.

If you want to slow down, think clearly, and see the world from a different perspective, you’re in the right place — by asking thoughtful questions, considering alternative perspectives, and taking steps toward a more intentional way of living.

If you would like to see more of my mini-homestead, check out my YouTube:
