Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jul 18, 2020

There are phrases we’ve heard and used over the years that are not true even though we use them as if they were.

This morning, we’re going to talk about the “The Lies (L-I-E-S) That We Believe “ And the reason I titled it “The Lies We Believe” is because that’s what the Lord told me to title it.

I myself have encountered this kind of attitude at multiple points throughout my life. I have experience it in the food service industry in which I ...read more
