The average person has 50,000 - 70,000 thoughts a day - and not all of them tell the truth. This episode dives deep into one of the most important spiritual disciplines: learning to take every thought captive and make it obedient to Christ.

Amber and Courtney explore 2 Corinthians 10:5 and Philippians 4:8, helping you understand how the enemy tries to disrupt your thinking and how God's Word empowers you to fight back with truth.

🧠 Key Topics Covered:

✨ The Strategy of the Enemy
Amber explains how Satan’s goal is to block the knowledge and application of God’s Word in the minds of believers.

✨ What It Means to Take Thoughts Captive
A practical, step-by-step process:

1. Think about what you think about
2. Identify the thought
3. Capture it
4. Test it against God’s Word
5. Decide what to do with it
6. Replace lies with truth

It’s like running your thoughts through a flour sifter - removing what doesn’t belong.

✨ Real-Life Stories & Practical Tools

• A 7th grade girl: “Not today, Satan!”
• I.D. Ministries: grabbing a lie, throwing it down, stomping on it
• Courtney’s “stain on clothing” analogy—small lies become big problems when ignored
• Amber’s reminder: practice makes truth-discernment faster and stronger

✨ The Power of Replacement
Don’t just reject the lie - replace it with Scripture.
Philippians 4:8 helps guide your mind toward what is true, pure, lovely, and excellent.
