Lies (Four Letter Words)
from MCC Podcast · host Miamisburg Christian Church
Today we are going to look at a word that God considers a 4-letter word. The problem is, not many people, even Christians, seem to view it the same way. According to HireRight's 2017 employment screening benchmark report, 85% of employers caught applicants fibbing on their résumés or applications, up from just 66% five years ago.

Lying comprised 7% of total communication and almost 90% of all lies were little white lies. Here’s our question: “Do grown-ups sometimes need to lie?”
