I actually don’t know where lying fits in the list of these sins, but I’ve always considered untruths to be one of the big ones! eek, oh well.

I read another one (and have another in this year’s line up yet) – Because “liars” was in question in my own mind as to whether or not lying is one of the seven, I offer up SLOTH – a picture book about adorable rescued sloths: https://bkclubcare.wordpress.com/2023/08/23/a-little-book-of-sloth/
