Have you ever told a Lie?

There are times when people wont say they are a liar or a thief when you discuss the 10 Commandments. 

I ran into a video recently online, and i suppose we could use this in that convo. 

Scenario:

A stand up comedian hates corporate and social games such as "2 truths and a lie". It is a cheap & lame way companies try to get people to connect with others or learn about them.  She suggested they point at 3 people and say i hate you, you and you.

Usage

During a gospel convo you can bring that up, since many say they havent stole anything, or just candy once. 

Have you ever seen something online, maybe a meme and said "I'm stealing that". Or ever cheated on a test at school, stole halloween candy, $ change from your parents change tray? or heard a response you liked online and commented "I'm stealing that idea" ?

Have you ever been at a work event and they asked you to tell 2 truths and a lie, and you played the game, or altered it and told all truths but by not telling a lie. Either way it still makes you a liar.

Just an idea. 

Pre gospel survey

You could also do a survey, and it lists 100 things people lie about. Have them mark all the ones theyve done, and the bottom or back last page has the gospel. 

They can win a prize based on the answers. 

Collect answers for 3 hours, or from a large group currently there.

Without telling them...The person with the least lies gets a prize. In the event of a tie they do a run off test (name the most commandments, without help). 

Coukd be a $5 gift card to in and out 

Or some small prize.

Christian suggestion. 2 truths and a lie game

If you are in a culture at work or social, speak to the person in advance, who is going to speak at the thing, and ask them to pick you last, and do a twist and ask me to say 3 truths. 

Or if you are caught off guard at an event where this happens, say, "plot twist, 3 truths: 1,2,3" and make it kind of fun and upbeat so it doesnt look like you are a debbie downer. 

Think up 4 different set answers to that question, and keep it in a email to pull up when this happens, or print out if phones arent allowed to be used in the meeting. 

You could do something upbeat and funny for one of them, preferably the 1st time you are caught offguard.
