hypocrites in transition

Today, I was reading where the word "hypocrite" came from. In the culture of Jesus' day, a big piece of the culture and entertainment was drama. On stage, the actors would wear mask and play a different role or "hypocrite." So when Jesus called the religious leaders of his day a "hypocrite," they knew exactly what He was referring to. At C3, we are doing our best to line our actions up with our words. We are all "hypocrites in transition," trying to become less like ourselves and more like Jesus.
