On the Mount of Transfiguration

Can you imagine going up on a mountain with Jesus to pray, and suddenly being joined by Moses and Elijah? Only a few days after their encounter with the Son of God at Caesarea Philippi, Peter, James, and John witnessed the miraculous transfiguration. In this lesson, Dr. Thomas explains the purpose of the transfiguration by taking a close look at Jesus—His humanity and His divinity—and how significant this moment was in Peter’s life.
