theology, church planting, big ideas
Hi, I'm AJ Vanderhorst. Born in Lawrence, Kansas, home of the mighty Jayhawks, I currently live near downtown Kansas City. I'm married to the beautiful Lindsay, and have two rambunctious kids, Aidan and Asher. At the moment, my goal is to freelance write & get an urban church plant off the ground. It would also be cool to keep my hoops game alive and see a downtown Renaissance in KC.
This blog is where I think out loud about knowing Jesus, living out my theology, and making risky plans, so it has a personal, sometimes confessional flavor. We want to see a new, Jesus-exalting, culturally-focused work of God started in the urban arts district of KC. Feel free to contact me if something here sparks your interest.
I just stumbled across KupOfJoe.com, a list of KC’s coffee places with comments, maps, and links. Not bad. This is in addition to KC Perky, a regularly updated coffee blog with more detailed reviews, but fewer places listed. In an hour I’ll be checking out Rev! Cafe & Gallery for the first time…which is a Christian place, The Pitch tells us. Who knew it?

Hm…I hope you found the place open, not disappointing your odometer and taste buds, cause the link within the linked article above said the cafe was closed as of July 18th.

Ha, fortunately the place is about 7 minutes from us! I noticed some buzz about it being closed, a few minutes before I had to leave to meet a friend there…I was like, “Well, surely he knows whether this place is open or not.” Apparently they weren’t making the grade financially, too bad. Kind of a tough location.
