    Mountain top experiences are necessary! The Apostles' experience at the Transfiguration reminds us that no matter how powerful a spiritual experience is, the time comes when we must come down off the mountain and rejoin our everyday life.

    Scripture - Matt 17:1-13 “Six days later Jesus took Peter and the two brothers, James and John, and led them up a high mountain to be alone. 2 As the men watched, Jesus’ appearance was transformed so that his face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as light. 3 Suddenly, Moses and ...read more

    Worship Jesus Only

     | 3,230 views

    When the opinion of men supersedes the opinion of God, we are focusing too much on people; and there are believers who unknowingly worship people. But the only one whom we should be seeking to please and worship is Jesus.

    John once shared the account of some people who had denied Christ for fear of what the Pharisees would think. In John 12:42-43, He said, “Many believed in Him, but because of the Pharisees they did not confess Him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the praise of men more ...read more

He is challenged by Peter but goes on to tell the disciples that not only will He die on the cross, but He will return to this ...read more

    I believe the Transfiguration took place, because God the Father wanted to answer the question: Definitely - once and for all, “Who is Jesus?”

    Why did Jesus lead Peter, James and John up on the Mountain? And why would God make it so they could see Moses and Elijah speaking with Christ that day?

    The story in our text today is recorded in Matthew, Mark and Luke and I believe it’s the source of the phrase “A Mountain Top Experience. So, over the past week I went searching for stories and quotes about Mountain top experiences, and I stumbled on this comment: “The Outing Club is hosting world ...read more

    Feast Of The Transfiguration Of The Lord- Ascending The Spiritual Mountain

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jul 1, 2023
     | 1,019 views

    It happens, geographically, on a mountain top because the higher you climb the more you see, so it’s revelatory of a person’s advancement in the spiritual life.

    Even the highest moments of mystical union are meant to empower one to serve our neighbor. It’s about service. E.g. there is the story of a lady who went to a prayer group where everyone was sitting in silence. "When does the service begin?" she asked a man sitting near her. His answer: ...read more
