Get Up and Do Not Be Afraid



Rev. Jason Butterick concludes the series of Spiritual Affective Disorder with the encounter with Peter, James, John, and Jesus upon the mountaintop. Jesus meets with Elijah and Moses, the greatest prophet and greatest teachers of Israel’s history. Out of the ordinary comes the extraordinary, revealing who Jesus really is in dazzling white apparel. Sometimes we do not want to leave, or we want to build shrines. But Jesus remains with us, as the encounter vanishes, and we are filled with fear. From here we go back down the mountain, approaching suffering, death, and the resurrection. Transfiguration transform us. How will stay afraid, when Jesus is with you?
