Transfiguration! Moses. Elijah. The Voice. The brilliance. Only Luke tells us some of the conversation between the radiant Christ and Moses and Elijah. They were talking about His departure – His exodus. In the midst of all that glory, the conversation was about the cross. Sometimes, we become caught up in the glory syndrome. We like success. We like to think God is blessing. We like to point to all the things that are going well, to all the places God is at work. But always, in the midst of the glory, in the midst of the radiance of the Christ, we are pointed to the cross. That’s where the conversation always takes us.
