Dear friends- Join us this week as we conclude the season Epiphany by observing the Feast of the Transfiguration, as recounted in Luke 9:28-36. The word transfigure is used in the passage to describe how Jesus changes. This is the same word as metamorphosis – not just transformation from one thing to another, but of one thing to something better- and it has great applicability to our own lives, and to our church as well. I will also talk about it using a recent novel I read, “Go, Went, Gone” by Jenny Erpenbeck, which looks at transfiguration as a kind of awakening to consciousness. Join us for lively worship this Sunday! Jim
P.S. Here’s a recent review of “Go, Went, Gone”
