Jesus metamorphosed. Celebrities from the past. Petrified disciples. Luminous cloud. An event as important as Christmas or Easter! Are you a preacher wondering what you can possibly say new and interesting on Transfiguration this year, to say nothing of all the Transfigurations that lie ahead of you? Are you an everyday believer curious to learn more about this holiday celebrated every year, yet somehow overlooked and ignored? Are you hooked on weird theological terms, intrigued by the fact that "transfiguration" is Latin for the Greek "metamorphosis" (as in butterflies and Kafka), and love to explore every wild and woolly corner of the Bible? Are you tired of Peter always getting bashed for offering to build booths? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, then “Seven Ways of Looking at the Transfiguration” needs to be at the top of your reading list!
