The Mountain and the Mission

Have you ever had a mountaintop moment? Most of us have. Transfiguration Sunday is our mountaintop moment, where we glimpse the glory of Jesus before descending into the valley of Lent. Just as Peter longed to stay on the mountain, we often desire to remain in moments of spiritual high, yet Jesus calls us to move forward—toward Jerusalem, toward the cross. This message invites us to listen to Christ, follow Him in obedience, and embrace the journey of Lent as a path of transformation. As we walk the way of the cross, we remember that the radiance of the Transfiguration points us to the depth of Christ’s love revealed on the Cross.
