This is the first in a series of messages called Little Big Things- issues that we consider small and insignificant but God views as important. Our topic today is the importance of telling the truth.

Different Kinds of Lying

• Bold-faced lies
• Half-truths
• False impressions
• Flattery
• False excuses
• White lies

Common Ways That We Lie

• We love to exaggerate numbers
• We love to embellish our accomplishments
• We love to spice up our stories

Honesty might seem like a little thing to us, but it’s a big thing to God. Let’s be people of our word. That’s who God wants us to be, and that’s who our friends want us to be.
