TALK: And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun,

               and his clothes became dazzling white.   (Matthew 17:2)

Three of the disciples find themselves atop a mountain with Jesus and two dead prophets in a blaze of light. Under such circumstances, can we really blame Peter for speaking nonsense?

  • What events have occurred in your community that have changed the course of your community’s future? How have the transformational events transformed you?
  • What does it mean to you when Jesus says, “Deny [yourself], and take up your cross and follow me”? In what ways have you taken up a cross? In what ways have you denied yourself?
  • For the littles: What does it mean when a person glows bright like the sun? Jesus glowed like that!

PRAY: O God of the ages, you give us your only son and ask only that we listen to him. Help us to see you throughout our highs and lows, and to find courage in having you by our side. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

BLESS: May God transform your heart and mind to be of like heart and mind with God. Amen.
