Join us for the moment that celebrates Jesus' radical change of appearance while in the presence of Peter, James, and John, on a high mountain. The Transfiguration revealed Christ's glory prior to the crucifixion, and it anticipated his resurrection and ascension.
Understanding the relationship between spirituality and religion is key to our ability to meet people where they are, and in doing so, demonstrate God’s love to them.
