I’ve been watching Chris teaching the principles of voice for many years. Sometimes it’s to an individual and sometimes to a group of anywhere from 6 to 1,200 students. (That was in Singapore.) I guess part of the fun is seeing that truth is always truth, no matter what country we’re in, or what language is being spoken.
The other place where I see the “Truth is Always Truth” principle is watching people mature in their walk with the Lord. We’ve started calling ourselves Christ-followers, because we don’t want to just study the ways of the Lord; we want to actually live a certain way.
Here’s a Truth I love: When Chris and I apply Acts 2:42 to our lives it has us hearing good, honest, balanced, believable and challenging teaching; interacting with others of like mind and spirit; celebrating the Eucharist (communion) and having an active prayer life. We’ve discovered that when we take the time to actually DO those things we grow. When we don’t, we get stagnant.
I’d love to know your experiences with “Truth is Always Truth,” in either your vocal or spiritual life. You can let me know in the “comment” section below.

Thank you for sharing.
John 8:31-32 has always been helpful for me. Knowing that once we believe/rely on the truth it will set us free. free from many different kinds of bondage.
Blessings!
I just finished watching the little tip on your website where Chris talks about how our voices don’t sound to us the way they sound to others. I thought that was so interesting! The fact is…our voice is our voice (the truth), but depending on the variables (temperature, number of people in the room, acoustics, etc.) it can sound distorted to us. That reminds me that the God’s truth can also be distorted to us by outside variables (societal influences, false teachers, our own woundings, etc.) I long to be a person of truth! And I know that if my heart seeks after Him sincerely, He will show me the truth despite whatever outside “variables” there are!
Thanks for this post!
Good parallel thought and truth. Thanks.
