In this episode, we discuss the readings for the last Sunday after the Epiphany, which is also Transfiguration Sunday, Year A in the Lectionary cycle: Matthew 17:1-9; 2 Peter 1:16-21; Psalm 99 (or Psalm 2); Exodus 24:12-18.
We wonder at the marvelous account of the Transfiguration, consider Peter's direct eye-witness testimony, highlight God's attributes named in the Psalm, and close with the dramatic scene of Moses on the mountain.

Our outro music is an original song by our friend Dcn. Jeremiah Webster, a poet and professor whose giftedness is rivaled by his humbleness. You can find his published works, including After So Many Fires, with a quick Google.
