The format of the evening consists of a talk, Q&A session, and fellowship. It is set up similar to Theology on Tap, however, there is no tap to draw from. We do, however, have great coffee, espresso, cappuccino, frozen drinks and desserts. We've created an atmosphere of relaxation and comfort at Holy Grounds. Stop by and "find peace from the daily grind".
