010 - Can your family cancel your destiny or does it arrive all the same?
In episode 10 Ire looks at one of the reasons we often fail to reach our goals and targets - when we lose sight of the bigger picture and the overriding objective.
We look at Joseph in the bible, a man who literally dreamt God's will for his life but because he did not take time to understand the dreams and instead got consumed by excitement, he almost saw his destiny cancelled.

In episode 2 Ire describes what God's heart looks like to him in just 3 words!
We look at how both Abraham and Moses bargained with God and changed God's original plan/course of action which shows God is actually a pretty reasonable guy who cares about our view points on things. We also look at the story of the Prodigal Son as a way to further examine God's heart and character.

#AfterGodsOwnPod: 001 - Are you after God's presence or presents?
In episode 1 Ire talks about what it means to be after God's own heart.
We do a study of King David in the bible and we look at what it was about him which made God say he is a man after his own heart. We can use these attributes of David in our own lives as a check to see whether we truly are after God or not and then make the necessary adjustments required.
Question to ponder: are you after God's presence (getting to know him for him) or his presents (what you can get from him)?
