Today’s Story

Let's be honest: Maya's lies starting to grind on everyone! First she makes up wild stories about Fin being banned from New York City. Then she completely fabricates the earliest foundations of Coleraine!

At the same time, Timmy Morrison's doesn't seem to understand that telling the truth can sometimes hurt!

HOW ABOUT YOU…Have you ever met someone who has a hard time telling the truth? Have you ever been hurt by someone else's brutal honesty?

CHECK THIS OUT…Instead, we will hold to the truth in love, becoming more and more in every way like Christ, who is the head of the body, the church (Ephesians 4:15). See? Be truthful and become more like God-it's easy! Right?

Not completely. The key part in that verse is the two words right after 'truth.'

Being truthful, "in love" means to speak in ways that build others up-never tearing down. It means guarding yourself against gossiping and exaggerating. It means sharing God's mercy and love with everyone you know. So do it!
