<p><strong>Extra Shot — Cup 9: The Altar Before the Calendar</strong></p><p>We love trying to fix spiritual drift with better schedules, cleaner routines, new apps, and color-coded calendars. But a calendar cannot repent for you. A planner cannot reorder your loves. And a productivity tool cannot restore worship.</p><p>In this Extra Shot of <em>Grace in the Grind</em>, Cody presses deeper into the theology behind Cup 9, <em>Starting Over Without Starting From Scratch</em>. If God has revealed drift in your life, the first question is not, “How do I fix my schedule?” The better question is, “What needs to return to the altar?”</p><p>Looking at Romans 12:1, Matthew 6:21, Luke 9:23, and Psalm 127:1, this episode confronts the difference between time management and true surrender. Worship is not a time slot. It is lordship. The problem is not always disorganized time — sometimes it is disordered love. And if Christ is Lord, the altar is not a negotiating table.</p><p>A cleaner calendar might improve your week, but only surrender can reorder your worship.</p><p>Grace in the Grind is produced in partnership with Arrow &amp; Roots Coffee Co., helping believers grow deeper roots in Christ and live faithfully where God has planted them.</p><p><strong>Arrow &amp; Roots Coffee Co.</strong> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://ArrowandRootsCoffeeCo.com">https://ArrowandRootsCoffeeCo.com</a></p><p><strong>Coffee Date — Arrow &amp; Roots Coffee Co.</strong> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://ArrowandRootsCoffeeCo.com/products/coffee-date">https://ArrowandRootsCoffeeCo.com/products/coffee-date</a></p><p><strong>Support Arrow &amp; Roots / Buy Me a Coffee</strong> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/ArrowandRoots">https://buymeacoffee.com/ArrowandRoots</a></p><p><strong>Grace in the Grind Podcast</strong> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/podcasts/grace-in-the-grind-pod1/">https://rss.com/podcasts/grace-in-the-grind-pod1/</a></p><p><strong>Companion Podcast for Parents — Coffee Break: Biblical Truth on Parenting</strong> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coffee-break-biblical-truth-on-parenting/id1866463610">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coffee-break-biblical-truth-on-parenting/id1866463610</a></p><p><strong>Christ and His Church: A Biblical Study of the Nature, Mission, and Life of the Church</strong> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GDFW8CN7">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GDFW8CN7</a></p><p><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://RSS.com"><strong>RSS.com</strong></a> <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://rss.com/?via=ARCC">https://rss.com/?via=ARCC</a></p>
