    Looking at the Transfiguration and Peter's remark - it is good for us to be here. Why our Church must move forward to be what God calls us to be.

    The Transfiguration – Matthew 17: 1 - 13 As an introduction to the message, here is a little background to the transfiguration. I was not fully aware of what it was and what it meant so just in case I am not the only one, here is that background. This is one of the most important, yet one of ...read more

    This afternoon I want us to look at the transfiguration through the eyes of the apostle John, & behold what he beheld. So what did John see? As John stood on that mountain & saw the transfiguration of Jesus, what did he see?

    May 26, 2008 Glory and Majesty Matthew 17:1-8 I want to read a passage of Scripture that I imagine is familiar to most of you. It’s where Matthew tells about the transfiguration of Jesus, & it is found in Matthew 17:1-8. "After six days Jesus took with ...read more

    Sometimes something happens that is so startling that it opens your eyes to what was there, but hidden, and it forever changes the world!

    I remember it like it was just a few moments ago. It was a beautiful clear, sunny Tuesday morning and I had a meeting with Jay and Colette about their mission work in Poland. Jay came running into my office and told me to look on the internet because something big was happening in New York City. ...read more

    Using the account of Jesus' transfiguration there are lessons we can learn about our transformation

    TRANSFORMATION: His and Ours MATTHEW 17: 1-8 Today I want to talk to you about TRANSFORMATION. Most of you don't understand what that means. Many of us think of the caterpillar and the butterfly. But that is not truly transformation. Why? Because what happens to the butterfly is only EXTERNAL! ...read more

     | 6,310 views

    Many will ask us as Christians certain questions about our God and His Son Jesus Christ. It is important that we are prepared. This sermon should assist the congregation in answering some of the most important ones.

    I. Why Did Jesus have to die? Answer: In order that He die as a man, He had to be born and live as one. He came to earth as a man but was God incarnated (Immanuel—God as man). He came to save us, literally from ourselves and this filthy world in which we live. He came to teach us, not only by ...read more

    At Mass, we pray that God will “bring us into the light of Your face.”

    Transfiguration Jesus was transfigured; his physical appearance changed such that his face shone like the sun. “God from God, light from light.” In the book of Exodus, Moses’s “face shone because he had been talking with God” (Exodus 34:29). So we too can be filled with the presence of God, ...read more

    Cuando el maquillaje cuesta $23 no es momento para llorar!

    Transfiguración El rostro de Jesús se puso resplandeciente como el sol. “Dios de Dios, Luz de Luz.” En Exodo 34:29, “el rostro de Moisés resplandecía, después de haber hablado con Dios.” El resplandor espiritual es el resultado de la comunión con Dios. No requiere maquillaje. Yo vi un ...read more

    This yearning within us is not really about life's circumstances. It is about us! This restlessness this desire for something more generally means we have been living life at the shallow end of the pool. Updated August 2023..

    Each year ...we as Anglicans ... set aside a date to hear the glorious story... of the transfiguration. The Scriptures Speak to the transfigured nature of our Lord... in the books of Mathew, Mark, and Luke. Here God's Word (Pick one) ....... BIBLE "And he (Jesus) was transfigured before ...read more

    Have you ever had a moment when your life was changed? Perhaps it was similar to the Transfiguration. That moment changed the lives of Peter, James, John and Jesus, just like moments in our lives can change us.

    GOD SHOWS HIS LOVE Romans 5:1-11 Romans 5:8 - “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Those who believe in Jesus and put their trust in Him are made right with God.

     | 15,484 views

    The transfiguration reveals that Jesus is powerful (he is God!), primary (he must come first), personable (he cares about us), and passionate (he desires all to be saved). God wants us, like the disciples present, to "listen to him!"

    Matthew 17:1-9 Opening Our Eyes to God’s Glory Do you ever get the sense that you take God for granted? Some of us grew up in homes where going to Sunday worship was expected of us. We grew up always knowing the love of God from an early age. And perhaps we’re spoiled a little. We don’t remember ...read more

    A New Vision Of Christ

    A commitment to spiritual formation leads to a new vision of Christ, that allows us to say with absolute conviction, “I have seen the face of the pilot, and he smiled at me. He is at the helm. All is well.”

    Robert Louis Stevenson tells of a ship, tossed by a violent storm, which threatened to drive it and its passengers to destruction along a rocky coast. In the midst of the terror, one daring man, contrary to orders, went to the main deck, making a dangerous passage to the pilothouse. He looked ...read more

    The Leading Of Christ Series

    Contributed by J. Yeargin on Mar 7, 2017

    Our scriptures are unique in that Christ chose 3 of the 12 disciples to follow Him “into an high mountain apart.” One can only wonder why Jesus chose only 3…

    THE LEADING OF CHRIST Being a disciple of Christ is very important to the Plan of God. Trying to navigate on your own (without God) can be a mistake. When my wife and I travel we usually take our Garmen Navigation and sit it on the dash of our car. We try not to get lost, but it happens… and it’s ...read more
