The Transfiguration is one of the accounts of the life of Christ that is found in each of the Gospels. The universal church has dedicated a Sunday each year to acknowledge it. And yet, its importance is probably missed by most of us who are dazzled by the unveiling of Jesus so that we see his divine glory. Is it just a cool trick? Are we simply supposed to be impressed? What’s the point of it all? This Sunday, we’ll travel with Jesus, Peter, James, and John up the Mount of Transfiguration to be confronted by the glory in our midst, a glory that enables us to persevere through suffering and hardship until we become partakers in it ourselves.
