The Transfiguration, Lent, and the Good Life

Kenny Benge preached a sermon entitled “The Transfiguration, Lent, and the Good Life” for Transfiguration Sunday  on February 10, 2013. The New Testament teaches that those who are spiritually alive in the Kingdom of God are the most well off. Being alive in god’s Kingdom is a gift from God, not a moral program we design for ourselves to better ourselves.  Spiritual practices that we undertake during Lent help to put us in a place for God to work, making room for Jesus, training us in how to respond to God with a lifestyle of repentance.
