This Sunday’s Gospel (Matthew 17:1–9) gives us the Transfiguration, one of the most mysterious and beautiful moments in the life of Christ. But this passage is not only about proving that Jesus is God. It reveals what humanity looks like when it is fully united to God.In this episode, we explore theosis, sanctification, the imago Dei, and what it means to be transformed “from glory to glory” (2 Corinthians 3:18).
