This is the last in our series of worships looking at **truth** and **truthfulness** and this week we are considering the quite tricky thing of being honest when it might hurt someone else's feelings. The important thing is how we share the truth, we share it in a loving way that doesn't knock someone down but actually helps to build them up. As always, please leave your comments for us to share together :-) [YouTube video](https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/NQWNyQLNvbc?rel=0) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-matthew-s-cofe-primary/imagecache/100x100c/blog/Values_heart_coloured_(1).jpeg)](https://stmatthewspreston.co.uk/blog/2021-07-08-05-30-00-what-makes-god-sad-rev-mchaffie) Previous ### [What makes God sad?
