Do you ever fail to show up when you promise?

Nancy DeMas Walgamoos says that can be a form of deception.

Being late could be lying?

Oh no.

I mean, that's really picky.

This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss Walgamuth, author of Lies, Women Believe, for July 10th, 2025.

I'm Dana Gresh.

Nancy's continuing a series from the Proverbs.

We've been talking all this week about, well, about talking, about the words that we speak.

And I have to tell you, this is a really tough and uncomfortable subject for me to study, much less to teach on.

And I've been immersed over the last days here in the book of Proverbs, and I'm just letting you suffer a little bit like I've suffered.

thee. That's what we read in Psalm 119, verse 11. So as I get the word of God in my heart,
