The Magic Green Shirt is a Family publication written by David Berg in which he describes a dream of his adopted son, "Davidito," being incapable of any form of dishonesty while wearing a special shirt.
References to a "magic green shirt" are sometimes used within The Family as a call to honesty.

61 Beloved, have you donned the Magic Green Shirt of God's Spirit of truth & honesty?--Do you have the power of Christ's Spirit dwelling in your heart so that you do not lie nor deceive nor cheat & are always honest with others?
