00:00:00.430 --> 00:00:02.330
Do we actually believe what we say we believe?

00:00:03.009 --> 00:00:05.690
We say God is enough, but panic when the money

00:00:05.690 --> 00:00:08.910
gets tight. We say family matters, but give work

00:00:08.910 --> 00:00:11.890
the best of us and bring home what's left. We

00:00:11.890 --> 00:00:14.849
say we trust God, but only feel at peace when

00:00:14.849 --> 00:00:17.769
we know how things are going to turn out. We

00:00:17.769 --> 00:00:20.870
say the church is a family, but treat it like

00:00:20.870 --> 00:00:23.690
an optional weekly event. We go when it fits

00:00:23.690 --> 00:00:25.969
the schedule. You know, unless the kids have

00:00:25.969 --> 00:00:28.530
a travel game, unless the fish are biting, unless

00:00:28.530 --> 00:00:30.809
we're tired. and we decide we'll just stream

00:00:30.809 --> 00:00:33.649
the family gathering from bed. Then suddenly,

00:00:33.810 --> 00:00:37.670
the family of God can wait until next week. We

00:00:37.670 --> 00:00:40.030
say scripture is our authority, but sometimes

00:00:40.030 --> 00:00:42.549
what we call biblical is really just what we

00:00:42.549 --> 00:00:45.390
grew up around. And I'm not saying any of this

00:00:45.390 --> 00:00:48.250
because I've got it figured out. I haven't. These

00:00:48.250 --> 00:00:50.189
are questions God has raised in my own life,

00:00:50.289 --> 00:00:52.969
my own priorities, and my own walk with him.

00:00:53.369 --> 00:00:55.729
Because we are not called to figure all this

00:00:55.729 --> 00:00:58.469
out alone. We're called to walk with one another.

00:00:58.969 --> 00:01:01.350
to bear with one another, to encourage one another,

00:01:01.469 --> 00:01:04.030
and to keep bringing our lives back under scripture

00:01:04.030 --> 00:01:07.310
together. That's the tension Grace and the Grind

00:01:07.310 --> 00:01:10.269
keeps coming back to. Because eventually, what

00:01:10.269 --> 00:01:12.510
we really believe shows up in the way we live.

00:01:13.370 --> 00:01:16.189
This is a conversation built over a cup and sometimes

00:01:16.189 --> 00:01:18.510
a whole pot of coffee about what happens when

00:01:18.510 --> 00:01:21.390
biblical truth gets out of our heads and into

00:01:21.390 --> 00:01:24.870
our everyday lives. We open scripture, question

00:01:24.870 --> 00:01:27.709
assumptions, challenge familiar patterns, and

00:01:27.709 --> 00:01:30.129
try to be honest, when the way we live says something

00:01:30.129 --> 00:01:32.150
different than the words coming out of our mouths.

00:01:32.769 --> 00:01:35.810
And when conviction lands close to home, we don't

00:01:35.810 --> 00:01:39.670
stop at guilt. We come back to grace. Each season

00:01:39.670 --> 00:01:42.650
is a 12 -cup pot built around one larger biblical

00:01:42.650 --> 00:01:45.030
conversation with shorter extra shot episodes

00:01:45.030 --> 00:01:47.989
that dig deeper into the theology and the questions

00:01:47.989 --> 00:01:50.590
we probably could have left alone, but we didn't.

00:01:51.069 --> 00:01:54.349
I'm Cody. Pour the coffee. Open your Bible. Pull

00:01:54.349 --> 00:01:57.090
