Did you know that the word hypocrite originally means a stage actor or pretender? We don’t like to think of ourselves as ever being hypocrites, but if we put on a mask in relationships and pretend to be a way we aren’t, then we’re guilty of this. Today Pastor Tom teaches that it’s dangerous as a Christian to pretend to be somebody we’re not. If we want to grow in the character of Christ, we need to expose our weaknesses and be transparent with each other. When we bring things into the light, God can then bring healing.
