To See The Face Of God

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 12, 2025

What a great gift the Transfiguration is for us, glorifying God in our second full week of Holy Lent!

Second Sunday of Lent 2025 If there is a fundamental difficulty with religion, it may be that God, and every attribute of God, does not belong to us. All is naturally out of our human comprehension.

The Sacred Chest (1 Chronicles 13)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Oct 14, 2025
