    Transfiguration Sunday: What a sight they saw! But in His transfiguration, the disciples, and we, can see the magnitude of the sacrifice on the Cross and how it is far superior to the work of the Law and the Prophets.

    In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the ...read more
