Matthew 23
Do you think Jesus is unhappy with hypocrites? What I had never noticed before is how Jesus tells the crowds, "So you must obey them and do everything they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach." Striving to make our words and our actions consistent is a vital part of the life of faith.

What a powerful passage! Jesus didn't mince any words when he described the hypocrites! Isn't that what "The Hole..." is basically about? We know the scripture and talk about good things but what about "living" the most important things - "justice and mercy and faith?"
