Build a Marriage Marked by Honesty By: Betsy St. Amant Haddox Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord, but those who act faithfully are his delight. - Proverbs 12:22 (ESV) Marriage can often feel like a minefield—or at best, a delicate balancing act on a tight rope. If we lean too far in the "tell our spouse everything" direction, we lose our balance. After all, they don't need to know every move we make all day long. But if we lean too far in the "don't tell our spouse anything" direction, we also risk falling. This is the tightrope where lies become increasingly burdensome. It might help to remember that lies of omission are still lies and "little white lies," are still lies. The Bible couldn't be clearer on its command to be honest. Proverbs 12 points out that lying is an abomination to the Lord. And 1 Peter is clear on the benefits that come with being honest.   CONTINUE READING →
