Mark 09: A Glimpse of Glory

The Transfiguration of Jesus on the mountain offers a rare glimpse of His divine nature as His appearance transforms and He meets with Moses and Elijah, representing a pivotal moment in His ministry. We see the stark contrast between this glorious encounter and the immediate return to earthly troubles as Jesus heals a demon-possessed boy whose father utters the relatable words, "I believe; help my unbelief."

• Jesus reveals His glory on the mountain with Peter, James, and John present
• Moses and Elijah appear, representing the Law and Prophets affirming Jesus
• God's voice declares "This is my dearly loved Son, listen to him"
• Jesus heals a demon-possessed boy when His disciples couldn't
• A father's honest prayer: "I believe; help my unbelief"
• Jesus predicts His death and resurrection, though disciples don't understand
• The disciples argue about who is greatest, missing Jesus' point about service
• Jesus uses children as examples of true greatness in God's kingdom
• Being "salt" means adding value to everything and everyone we encounter
• Glory is found not just in supernatural experiences but in serving others
