The transfiguration of Jesus is a turning point for Peter, James and John to understand the divinity of Jesus more fully. However, Jesus wasn’t exactly the kind of Messiah they were hoping for. After an extraordinary experience with Moses and Elijah, Jesus would describe what was going to happen next. Accepting Jesus means we will likely struggle to wrap our heads and lives around his mission and how to follow him. This was a turning point and the disciples will have to choose whether to keep following or not. We must make the same decision, today.
