We are constantly assaulted by lies. Every day we are told lies about who God is, about who we are, and about what the good life looks like. These are not merely lies from a culture war between the left and the right. These are deceptive ideas live in our own minds and imagination and memory –from family of origin to lived experience. These are lies that find an easy target on the disordered desires that live in our own hearts. Desires that area normalized in the culture at large. If we come to believe those lies and trust in them and live our lives and make our decisions according to them, they wreak havoc in our lives and deform our peace and joy.
