T & CS Day 3

Apparently I am not going to be able to stick to my plan of this being a daily series leading up to Thanksgiving. Looking more likely to be an every other day series.

Today I am thankful for those who have come before me, from whom I can learn. My parents, my grandparents, other mature adults, solid biblical theologians, the Founding Fathers, and so many more. There is a great benefit that comes from studying, listening to, and emulating those who are far more mature than I.

My shopping recommendation for today is Black Rifle Coffee Company. They are a veteran-owned coffee company. The coffee beans come from outside the USA, but all the roasting is done here in the United States. They are mostly an online company, though they do have coffee shops in selected states and plans to open more. I don’t mean to insult Starbucks lovers, but they seem to have a monopoly and supporting Black Rifle Coffee is a good way to combat that. They sell a wide variety of coffees, as well as hats, mugs, and more. Not all of the items they sell are made in the USA, but they proudly note online which items are made here. Black Rifle Coffee Company proudly supports and employs military veterans and the company just announced this week that they are going public, in order to ultimately employ more veterans. They are a company worth supporting. Check them out and buy a bag of coffee for your mom for Christmas, and maybe a bag for yourself as well. https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/
