Summary: It is quite possible to know a number of things about someone without knowing that person at all. Then we may have a new insight about someone. Peter, James and John certainly had such an enlightening in their mountaintop experience with Jesus. But these three apostles were not the only ones invited to a mountaintop experience of Jesus. We too, are invited and those who accept find a new face on the Jesus they thought they knew. |
|
Summary: The events of the Transfiguration serve as validation of Jesus’ message as well as affirming his authority to interpret God’s will for our lives. |
|
Summary: The biblical image of Christ as the Morning Star gives more value to our lives than the Valentine heart. |
|
Summary: The Transfiguration revealed Jesus as he truly is. Thanks to the touch of the Master’s hand, sometimes we are revealed as who we ought to be. Let us work to shine the light of Christ, that we may all be revealed as God intends us to be. |
|
Summary: Even though Christians are embarrassed by the scandals in the church and the un-Christian behavior of some church members, we place our faith in the transforming power of God. Even Jesus’ inner circle disciples betrayed his trust and acted unfaithfully. In the Transfiguration, we see a precursor of the Resurrection, the real foundation of our faith. |
|
Summary: When the disciples went up a mountain and saw Jesus transfigured, their lives were transformed and they didn’t want to return. When we have those mountaintop experiences, we can return to the world changed, and live by what we learned at the summit. |
|
Summary: Cloudy days can be disorienting and dangerous. But even in darkness, we can experience God’s presence, power and love. |
|
Summary: In the Transfiguration we see Jesus as he truly is: the Divine Presence, which was normally obscured within the human form. In our lives together as the Body of Christ, the trick is to see ourselves as we truly are — a fellowship of immortals, gloriously reflecting the one who is Light of the World. For us to truly appreciate those who share the pew with us we’ll have to imagine a little transfiguring in our midst.
