Transfiguration Sunday February 23, 2020
A Passageway to the Cross
Matthew 17:1-9
I grew up in a Pentecostal Church that was located on top of the Best Western store down in Vevay Indiana. If you want to know how to pronounce Vevay I can help you with that Sunday after service! I really did enjoy the worship experiences at that small storefront church, but I have over time come to realize that it felt like we were always in celebration mode. Since then I have been introduced to more contemplative forms of worship and found that it was refreshing to find balance.
When I look back at that experience, I realize that it was a beautiful expression of Easter all year around. That said, the passageway to the cross was absent. As I study for this Sunday's message I see the passageway, and ironically it involves the Transfiguration of Jesus.
Transfiguration means to undergo a metamorphosis. In this passage the Disciples witnessed Jesus glowing with a heavenly glow, a glow that was reserved for heavenly beings and it was a divine glow. This is where they hear again from God: "This is my Son, whom I love; with Him I'm well pleased. Listen to Him!". So, how is this the passageway to the cross?
I hope that you will join us this Sunday as we talk more about the Transfiguration of Jesus, and then again on Ash Wednesday at 7:00 pm as we find a passageway to the cross.
Pastor,
Kevin Davis

Maybe you have noticed that our accompanists have been playing our hymns on a Grand Piano. This piano is a gift to The Garden UMC that has office and practice space in our building. They have offered its use to us and we are grateful.
