Transfiguration - Matthew 17:1-13 10-29-00

Transfiguration - Matthew 17:1-13 10-29-00

Moments of joy/moments of struggle
Ski jump man/wide world of sports

The thrill of victory, the agony of defeat

Transfiguration
Up on the mountain
The perception of the presence of God
Excitement, tears, joy
When have you felt this? Let's stay here.

The actual presence of God
I become obedient
Break me, knock me down presence of God

We don't recognize how good we have it
Building tours after the dinner last week
Yet there are great struggles
Russ Cline's class topic
Sat. Eve Service

We go down the mountain to
To do the work of the Lord
suffer and die if need be
what they did for the cause

the movie Patriot

there is joy in the work of the Lord
Philippians 4
Romans 14
