About this ebook

Unraveling the Lies That Twist Our LivesIn six insight-packed sessions, Andy Stanley exposes four destructive and all-too-prevalent lies about authority, pain, sex, and sin. They’re deceptions powerful enough to ruin our relationships, our lives, even our eternities—but only if we let them. Including both a small group DVD and participant’s guide that work together, Twisting the Truth untwists the lies that can drag us down. With his gift for straight, to-the-heart communication, Andy Stanley helps us exchange falsehoods for truths that can turn our lives completely around.

    Why’s that? Is something wrong with us?

    Or could it be there’s an invisible world impacting our visible world? Is there something we can’t see influencing everything we can see?

And it can actually be life-threatening — physically, emotionally, and relationally.

    Many of us find this idea a bit difficult to accept. But the same Bible that tells us things we enjoy hearing — like Love one another and God so loved the world — that same Bible makes clear the existence of this invisible world.

    Still, as we learn more about it and face up to it, we often tend to resist this concept. We’re like some people in the 1800s who had trouble accepting the amazing new scientific discoveries of an entire world of microorganisms living all around us, invisible to the naked eye yet affecting all of human life.
