DC and Ashton discuss the importance of focusing, finding clarity, and direction.

They discuss Proverbs 4:25- 27 which encourages people to keep their eyes looking forward and to carefully consider their paths.

They point out how easy it is to be sidetracked by social media and other distractions, and how difficult it can be to stay focused on the task at hand.

They emphasize the importance of staying focused on your purpose and not being swayed by other things that may not be in alignment with it.

There are four potential problems that can arise if we do not focus, including a lack of clarity, difficulty in knowing what we should be doing, and a lack of purpose.

DC mentioned that the biggest reason for this lack of clarity is due to not seeking God first, and instead searching hard instead of seeking Him.

The speaker encouraged listeners to seek God first and to focus on tasks that align with His will for our lives in order to be productive and to achieve the purpose that Christ has placed for us.

DC and Ashton discuss Proverbs 16:3 and its implications for Christian entrepreneurs.

The Hebrew word for 'commit' in the verse means to roll away, give, and trust. In order for a Christian entrepreneur to successfully commit to the Lord whatever they do, they must have humility. Ashton suggests that this means putting God in charge of all work. The hosts also emphasize the importance of seeking God and His guidance as it pertains to plans and actions. Ultimately, they remind entrepreneurs to lean on God, and He will establish their plans.

The conversation is about how to make plans that are in line with God's will and truly serve a purpose. It is argued that if someone is not in charge, their plans won't matter, regardless of how great they think they may be. In order to succeed, the plans must be connected and submitted to God's will.

Additionally, success isn't always measurable, and sometimes it is our hearts which can guide us to determine if the plans are successful. This is seen by looking for signs of peace, rather than stress. It is also noted that when seeking God and His will, there are certain things that cannot be done without Him, and it is only through Him that the glory will be given.

DC and Ashton are interviewing Norman Henry, co-founder of City Transformation.

Norman explains how he was inspired by his pastor to pursue a career in this field, and how he then went on to work in the oil and gas industry before eventually transitioning to volunteer work at Voice of Hope Ministries.

Through this work, he saw the need for transformation in the city, and felt a burden from God to serve full-time.

In this podcast, hosts DC and Ashton discuss how to build businesses on the rock, as referenced in Matthew 7:24-25.

They explain that when businesses are built on pride, vain conceit, and the glory of one’s own self, it is unsustainable and unquenchable. Instead, businesses should be built on the word of God, as it is the only thing that will bring true satisfaction.

They encourage others to build their businesses heartily as they are doing it for the Lord. They explain that when one builds a business on the rock, even if the rain falls, the rivers rise and the winds blow, the business will not collapse because its foundation is on the rock.

The conversation is about using Matthew 7 as a guide to building a business.

They reference Mark 10:27, which states, “With man it is impossible, but with God, all things are possible.”

They emphasize that dreaming big doesn’t necessarily mean dollar signs and extra zeros. Instead, they suggest that one should consider if their big dream has a kingdom impact.

They also point out that there is no such thing as overnight success and that success usually involves a lot of hard work and perseverance. The podcast ends with them encouraging listeners to put God first on their path to success.
