If you knew you had just one week left on Earth, how would you spend your time?
Drawing from John 10:10, Amber reveals why your time is the enemy’s favorite target—and how he primarily steals it through distraction. The thief doesn’t need dramatic attacks, he simply keeps you distracted so you never fully step into your God-given assignment. He doesn't need to defeat you in battle if he can keep you from showing up on the field.
Through the story of Nehemiah, Amber unpacks six key strategies the enemy used to pull him away from rebuilding the walls and how he responded to protect his assignment. This episode explores the real cost of misplaced time and the supernatural fruit that comes when we guard it.
