    The importance of the transfiguration in our lives as Christians

    In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. Sometimes through our human nature or perhaps, in my case, just plain stupidity, I don’t know if any of you have ever looked into a light bulb. If you have, then for the first couple of seconds you are totally blinded, but after a couple of ...read more

    In football the goal is to win. At Jesus’s transfiguration, the final play was called in Jesus’ ministry so that we could all win.

    “Football and Mountaintops” ~ Soup-er Bowl Sunday Matthew 17:1-9 (quotes taken from the NKJV unless noted) Wakelee Church ~ February 6, 2005 Note: Every time the word football was said during this service, it was the congregation’s cue to toss around Nerf footballs provided by the pastor. ...read more

    This is on the Transfiguration.

    What are our greatest needs? Food? Clothing? Shelter? Those things certainly are important, but is there a greater need? Set the stage: in Matthew 16, Peter confesses Jesus as the Christ. Jesus then went on to tell his disciples that he would soon be rejected and put to death. Jesus then ...read more

    Jesus Four-step Approach to Fear

    Ps 27 John Ortberg in his book- If You Want To Walk On Water You’ve Got To Get Out Of The Boat notes this about fear: - The single command in Scripture that occurs more often then any other-God’s most frequently repeated instruction-is formulated in two words: - Fear Not. Do not be afraid. Be ...read more

    Message about the Transfiguration and the Father’s command to "Listen to Him!"

    A Glimpse of His Glory Matthew 17:1-13 March 25, 2007 I think it’s possible that no one in here would be upset if God were to give them some sort of experience that would send shivers down their spine and change their lives forever. Maybe He’d take you to some faraway place filled with clouds ...read more

    At times God appears amongst the clouds. From the readings for Transfiguration Sunday we discover what some of the clouds in life maybe that affect our relationship with God, but also discover God is often found amongst them.

    Have you ever been driving down the Bass Highway to Devonport on a winters evening or morning, to be all of a sudden engulfed by clouds, fog and smog. At times it can be so dense that you have no idea what is a metre in front of you Or what is around you. Your headlights only serve to warn others ...read more

    How many of you here this morning have heard of the phrase “Mountaintop Experience?” How many of you here today have had at some time in your life what you’d consider to be a “mountaintop experience?” They can take on many forms, moments where we consider ourselves to be “on top of the world”. ...read more

    This Transfiguration sermon seeks to show God’s face, Jesus, for who He truly is using the Wizard from the Wizard of Oz as a negative example - our God is no man behind a curtain.

    In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, the Holy Three In One who… Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I didn’t see the Wizard of Oz until just two years ago. Before that I had gotten to know the characters as they had been presented to me in pop culture here and ...read more

    When we see in the Transfiguration that Jesus is fully human and fully divine, listening to Him takes on great power.

    Introduction: Our scripture passage took place six days after Jesus asked the disciples who people thought He was, and Peter recognized that He was the Messiah. Still the disciples didn’t really understand. As Jesus began His journey to Jerusalem, He was transfigured in front of Peter, James and ...read more

    There is much about God and about Jesus Himself that I do not understand, but perhaps that’s because there’s a lot I’m not expected to understand and don’t need to understan...

    Welcome once again to Transfiguration Sunday. We remember the transfiguration every year at about this time, though frankly it snuck up on me this year, otherwise I probably would have flicked this week’s sermon over to one of my esteemed colleagues.

    We need to move from the mountaintop into the valley, from transformation to sacrifice, if we are going to be effective in the world.

    I don’t know about you but very often the place when I feel nearer to God is on top of a mountain. Mountain top experiences are great, and when I’m standing there, on top of a mountain enjoying the awesome majesty of God’s creation, that’s fantastic. And those who have been silly enough to follow ...read more

    We sometimes have spiritual highs and we’d like to maintain them but we have to stay grounded in reality and do the work of Jesus - communicate the Gospel to a lost and dying world.

    Mountain Top Experience – Promise Keepers – Share your story with a neigbhor How did you respond after this experience? I wanted to stay. Can’t stay though.
