The Transfiguration

The King in His Beauty: The Transfiguration (Luke 9:28-36)

The Transfiguration does not show us a different Jesus. It reveals the glory of the same Jesus the disciples had been following all along. The King in his beauty is the same King who will wear a crown of thorns. The Cross does not contradict his glory.

The Transfiguration: An Anglican Perspective

The Transfiguration therefore gives the Church something she needs in every season: not an escape from ordinary life, but a clearer sight of the Lord who stands at its center. The green weeks continue, the Church descends again into ordinary discipleship, and the world remains disquieted.
