My Bishop said one night, while talking about Apostolics that are liars...
"A man that can't tell the truth will run to other false ways as well."
I've never forgot it and seen it come to pass time and time again.
I believe that Bro. If they will lie to you they will steal from you, if they will steal from you...etc.

My dad has never preached a sermon but he said something to me that has been the key to my life in ministering to people.
He said:
Son, if you are going to work with people, remember that first, they are people and therefore they will always disappoint you. Your job is to love them anyway.
My dad has always said something remarkably similar!
Also, while preaching, he often says, "let me saddle that one up, and ride it by you again".
