In this Satisfied episode, Ryan unpacks the crucial difference between sourced and unsourced temptations. Drawing from biblical principles and personal experiences, he provides clarity and hope for those plagued by unwanted and seemingly random intrusive thoughts. Learn how to wield the shield of faith to stand victorious in the ongoing mind war.

• What are sourced vs. unsourced temptations?
• Two key questions: Was there a source? Was there a choice?
• Why not all temptation is your fault
• The role of the shield of faith in Ephesians 6:16
• How Satan uses unsourced thoughts to discourage believers
• Responding rightly without false guilt
• A powerful personal testimony about dream-life temptation and victory

• Not all temptations are chosen or sourced; many are fiery darts from the enemy.
• Confessing unsourced and unchosen temptations can actually play into Satan’s discouragement strategy.
• Use the shield of faith to preemptively trust God for protection, even in dreams.
• Identity in Christ gives us authority to reject lies and live in victory.
• God can not only protect your thought life but also speak truth through it, even while you sleep.
