 "Transfiguration Sunday" March 6th, 2011  This week, Reverend Martha Ter Kuile preaches on the bible passage in which Jesus goes to a mountaintop, where he allows three apostles to see him transfigured as he speaks to Moses and Elijah. Martha discusses whether modern people can make any sense of this strange vision, particularly in a world where many are post-theistic, no longer believing in God at all. http://www.bloorstreetunited.org/audio/podcasts/sermonMarch62011.mp3
