There’s a lot happening in the world. Leadership races, controversies, executive orders, tariffs, competing ideologies, and quarrels over the holy land. You can compare it to a vortex which threatens to suck us in and take over our lives.

At first glance, Jesus’ transfiguration seems unrelated. But it actually provides helpful guidance about how to approach and respond to what is happening around us in a way that is sane and centred on Christ.

This sermon explores Mark 9:2-13 and is an invitation not only to marvel at Jesus’ radiance, but to resist the modern pressure to oversimplify issues, play political games, and place our hope in lesser political or ideological heroes. There is a better way.

Matthew Ruttan
