Sundays at All Hallows (Sunday, March 2, 2025) Is Now Online

Welcome to Sundays at All Hallows.

In Protestant churches that follow the Revised Common Lectionary, this Sunday, the last Sunday of the Season after the Epiphany, is the Feast of the Transfiguration, or Transfiguration Sunday. It recalls a pivotal event in the life of Jesus in which his face and clothing become dazzling bright after he and three of his disciples, Peter, James, and John, James’ brother, went up a mountain to pray. Jesus’ divine nature is not only momentarily unveiled but also Moses and Elijah appear to Jesus and his companions and converse with Jesus about future events. A cloud overshadows them, a voice speaks from the cloud, and the three disciples find themselves alone with Jesus.

The transfiguration of Jesus is recorded in all three Synoptic Gospels, Matthew, Mark, and Luke. It is ranked with his baptism, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension as one of the five milestones of Jesus’ life and ministry. It has been interpreted as a foreshadowing of Jesus’ resurrection as well as his fulfillment of the Law and the Prophets.

In this Sunday’ message we consider the implications of the words spoken by the voice from the cloud.

Readings: Exodus 34:29-35; 2 Corinthians 3:12-4:2; and Luke 9:28-36

Message: Are We Listening to Jesus?
