If you did not get a chance to join us on Sunday Night you can get the talk on our podcast page here.
Here are some discussion questions that can hopefully help us unpack the ideas we talked about from Luke 9:28-36.
1.) Is there anything about some of the history & symbolism surrounding
the story that we talked through, that was new to you? Did it shed any
new light on the Transfiguration for you? Did you get anything new
from the story?
2.) We talked about transcendent moments in our lives. Can you recall any
such transcendent moments in your own life?
3.) Did you try
and do anything to capture that moment? Did that work or can it ever
work?
4.) Does our Christian religious culture focus more on the "transcendent" experience with God or the simple "listen" to Jesus? In what ways does our religious culture focus on the transcendent in our gatherings, products, etc. Why do we want to pitch our tent there?
5.) We said on Sunday that the Transcendent experiences only mean something and/or change us when viewed from the vantage point of the cross. Does that make sense to you? In what ways have you seen that play out in your life?
