This class is the third of a three-part series on Seeking Truth.

And the first of the three was on what we call radical self-honesty, getting really honest

with ourselves about what's true.

The second part was deepening that inquiry with that question of who am I really, the deepest

of truths.

And the third is to bring that inquiry of what's true and speaking truth into our relationships

with each other.

That's what we'll be exploring tonight.

And I want to say honestly, I did not plan this with it in mind that speaking truth would

coincide with our last electoral debate.

That's just what happened.

Start with a story someone sent me years ago about a guy who's driving around the backroads

of Montana and he sees a sign in front of a broken-down old chanting.

It says talking dog for sale.

So he rings the bell and the owner appears and says dogs in the back.

So he goes to the back and there's this nice looking Labrador retriever.

And so he looks to the lab and he says you talk and lab says, yep, I do.

And after he recovers from the shock of a talking dog, he says, so, okay, what's your story?

And the lab goes on and says, well, I discovered I could talk pretty young.
