    At times God appears amongst the clouds. From the readings for Transfiguration Sunday we discover what some of the clouds in life maybe that affect our relationship with God, but also discover God is often found amongst them.

    Have you ever been driving down the Bass Highway to Devonport on a winters evening or morning, to be all of a sudden engulfed by clouds, fog and smog. At times it can be so dense that you have no idea what is a metre in front of you Or what is around you. Your headlights only serve to warn others ...read more

    Transfiguration sermon.

    How many of you here this morning have heard of the phrase “Mountaintop Experience?” How many of you here today have had at some time in your life what you’d consider to be a “mountaintop experience?” They can take on many forms, moments where we consider ourselves to be “on top of the world”. ...read more

    This Transfiguration sermon seeks to show God’s face, Jesus, for who He truly is using the Wizard from the Wizard of Oz as a negative example - our God is no man behind a curtain.

    In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Three In One who… Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I didn’t see the Wizard of Oz until just two years ago. Before that I had gotten to know the characters as they had been presented to me in pop culture here and ...read more

    When we see in the Transfiguration that Jesus is fully human and fully divine, listening to Him takes on great power.

    Introduction: Our scripture passage took place six days after Jesus asked the disciples who people thought He was, and Peter recognized that He was the Messiah. Still the disciples didn’t really understand. As Jesus began His journey to Jerusalem, He was transfigured in front of Peter, James and ...read more

    There is much about God and about Jesus Himself that I do not understand, but perhaps that’s because there’s a lot I’m not expected to understand and don’t need to understan...

    Welcome once again to Transfiguration Sunday. We remember the transfiguration every year at about this time, though frankly it snuck up on me this year, otherwise I probably would have flicked this week’s sermon over to one of my esteemed colleagues.

    We need to move from the mountaintop into the valley, from transformation to sacrifice, if we are going to be effective in the world.

    I don’t know about you but very often the place when I feel nearer to God is on top of a mountain. Mountain top experiences are great, and when I’m standing there, on top of a mountain enjoying the awesome majesty of God’s creation, that’s fantastic. And those who have been silly enough to follow ...read more

    The last week of Max Lucado’s Fearless Campaign based on his book. This week we let Jesus out of His box. We like the tame and cuddly Jesus but at His transfiguration Jesus shows that He is the ferocious God.

    Fearless #6 Fear of God getting out of my box This is our last week in this series that we call “fearless.” We have been trying to take of the bullies of life, those things that cause us to cower in a corner, those things that make us want to take a different path, and those things that just scare ...read more
