Transfigured and Changed.

Today's Gospel Reading is one of the accounts of Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration, when Jesus appears, with Moses and Elijah, arrayed in dazzling white, while several of his disciples look on.  It is one in a series of changes that we have been seeing throughout our season of Epiphany.  Why is it necessary for this "change" to occur?  What does it mean for us?  And, perhaps most importantly, what does it mean for us?  Father John explores these questions as we ponder this account from the beginning of Chapter 9 of Mark's Gospel.
