Hypocrisy

One of the things that Jesus most called out in the leaders of His day was “Hypocrisy.” Spiritually, hypocrisy is what happens when there is a mismatch between what we think or feel and what we say or do. Specifically, it is when we think or feel evil or falsity, and yet speak and act as if we mean well. This is a particularly harmful spiritual problem, and one that we all face. This Sunday we’ll look at how we can do better to make sure our good behaviour is inspired by good intentions and thoughts.
