Why Was Jesus Transfigured?

Contributed by Tim Bond on Mar 8, 2002

When we think about the incident known as the transfiguration of Jesus, why it happened is more important than what happened.

I heard a story recently about a terrible fire in a chemical plant. Several area fire departments responded to the blaze, and quite a crowd from the entire area gathered at a distance to watch. The media was there in helicopters and satellite remote trucks. The president of the company was among ...read more

Dare To Be Different

Contributed by Robert Shaver on Jan 2, 2012

Scripture Reading: Revelation 3:14-22 Isn't that crazy? A lukewarm Christian - the idea of it is absurd. It is crazy because who starts off their Christian walk like that? Who, in giving their life to Christ says, "Lord, take half of me! For the rest of my life I will half-heartedly serve ...read more

The Unveiling Of Jesus Christ

Contributed by David Kosobucki on Oct 18, 2013

The Unveiling of Jesus Christ Revelation 1 I began reading the book of Revelation almost 40 years ago, before I had even put my faith in Jesus Christ.
