Deception is growing and the enemy is fighting hard to keep these lies in the forefront of our minds. On today’s edition of Family Talk, Gary Bauer concludes his inspiring and thought-provoking discussion with Pastor Jack Hibbs about his latest book, "Living in the Daze of Deception: How to Discern Truth from Culture’s Lies." He reminds us not to make the mistake of thinking the church is immune to these lies. We must not only be hypervigilant ourselves, but be steadfast in sharing God’s Truth with those around us. 1 John 4:6 says, “We are from God, and whoever knows God listens to us; but whoever is not from God does not listen to us. This is how we recognize the spirit of truth and the spirit of falsehood.” About Today's Guest: Pastor Jack Hibbs Pastor Jack Hibbs is the senior and founding pastor at Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, based in Southern California.
