S5 E4 | Why We Lie and Common Lies We Te...

Lysa TerKeurst
About this episode

Research reveals that the average person lies at least 1-2 times per day. Why do we do this — even if it's considered a "white lie"? And what are the most common lies we tell?


Learn from Lysa TerKeurst, Dr. Joel Muddamalle and Jim Cress in Episode 4 of this six-part series of Therapy & Theology titled "I Want To Be More Self-Aware." Each week, we'll hear conversations providing tools for how we can live as the most healthy versions of ourselves.
