God, Family, Coffee feat. Billy Schiel with Honor Society Coffee Co.

There are countless ways in which we can honor others above ourselves and Billy Schiel has chosen to do that through coffee! What began as a retail product honoring coffee bean farmers and the craft of roasting has now evolved into a coffee shop that has the additional benefit of honoring the community that it serves. Because who can be unhappy when they’re drinking a delicious cup of coffee while surrounded by friends? Alongside running the Honor Society Coffee Co., Billy is a pastor with the Church Project; another way in which he serves and cares for others. Tune into our very first episode to hear about the origins of Billy’s small business journey, the benefits of staying small, advice for running a successful business, and some fascinating facts about coffee. Even if you don’t love coffee, Honor Society Coffee Co. has something that will fill your cup (literally and figuratively!)
