  17. You tell us to listen to your Son, yet we choose to listen to other voices and other people. So often you show us the way to be your children

  23. Time With Young Christians

  24. PROCLAIMING THE WORD SCRIPTURE READING: Exodus 24:12-18

  25. The Lord said to Moses, ‘Come up to me on the mountain, and wait there; and I will give you the tablets of stone, with the law and the commandment, which I have written for their instruction.’

  26. So Moses set out with his assistant Joshua, and Moses went up into the mountain of God. To the elders he had said, ‘Wait here for us, until we come to you again; for Aaron and Hur are withyou;

  27. whoever has a dispute may go to them.’ Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain. The glory of the Lord settled on Mount Sinai, andthe cloudcovered it forsix days;

  28. on the seventh day he called to Moses out of the cloud. Now the appearance of the glory of the Lord was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of Israel. Mosesentered the cloud,and went up onthe mountain.

  29. Moses was on the mountain for forty days and forty nights.

  30. SCRIPTURE READING: Matthew 17:1-9

  31. Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and his brother John and led them up a high mountain, by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone likethe sun, and hisclothes becamedazzling white.

  32. Suddenly there appeared to them Moses and Elijah, talking with him. Then Peter said to Jesus, ‘Lord, it is good for us to be here; if you with, I will make three dwellings here, one for you, one for Moses,and one forElijah.’

  33. While he was still speaking, suddenly a bright cloud overshadowed them, and from the cloud a voice said, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved; with him I am well pleased; listen to him!’ When thedisciplesheard this,

  34. they fell to the ground and were overcome by fear. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, ‘Get up and do not be afraid.’ And when they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus himself alone.

  35. As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus ordered them, ‘Tell no one about the vision until after the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.’

  36. L: This is the Word of the Lord. P: Thanks be to God!

  37. “Epiphany” Rev. Tedd Pullano

  38. *HYMN #73“Swiftly Pass the Clouds of Glory” v.1 Swiftly pass the clouds of glory, Heaven’s voice, the dazzling light; Moses and Elijah vanish; Christ alone commands the height!

  39. *HYMN #73“Swiftly Pass the Clouds of Glory” v.1 Peter, James, and John fall silent, Turning from the summit’s rise Downward toward the shadowed valley Where their Lord has fixed His eyes.

  40. *HYMN #73“Swiftly Pass the Clouds of Glory” v.2 Glimpsed and gone the revelation, They shall gain and keep its truth, Not by building on the mountain Any shrine or sacred booth,

  41. *HYMN #73“Swiftly Pass the Clouds of Glory” v.2 But by following the Savior Through the valley to the cross, And by testing faith’s resilience Through betrayal, pain, and loss.

  42. *HYMN #73“Swiftly Pass the Clouds of Glory” v.3 Lord, transfigure our perception With the purest light that shines, And recast our life’s intentions To the shape of Your designs,

  43. *HYMN #73“Swiftly Pass the Clouds of Glory” v.3 Till we seek no other glory Than what lies past Calvary’s hill, And our living and our dying And our rising by Your will.
