Truth vs Lies Setup

Erica on Half Truths

Messy Lineage Hope

Happiness Lie, Listener Q & A

Have you ever asked yourself if what you believe is REALLY true? Or is it something that
culture has influenced in your day-to-day life? Danny and Rebecca welcome Erica Ligenza
Gwynn to discuss her book, That’s Just Not True. Erica shares how motherhood exposed
half-truths like “I can do anything,” and discusses trusting God through problems rather than
doing everything to prevent them. They explore lies such as “I’m stuck,” “I messed it all up”,
and “I’ll be happy when...”. We're emphasizing joy, gratitude, and contentment. In the Q&A,
we advise a listener worried about generational patterns of children outside marriage. This
program encourages prayer, community, and honest future conversations.
