The Transfiguration, one of the most mysterious miracles of Christ,
has been mostly misunderstood for two millennia."Andreas
Andreopoulos approaches the Transfiguration explaining its
significance in the continuing experience of the church and in the
personal journey of each Christian. He sees the Transfiguration as
`a timeless story,' as `an event that keeps on happening.' He
writes in a way that is vivid yet profound and often unexpected.
Reading his text, I have come to look at Christ's Transfiguration,
and our own, with new eyes and a fresh understanding." -From the
Foreword by Metropolitan Kallistos of Diokleia "For many Western
Christians the Transfiguration is a barely remembered incident in
the gospels, its feast, 6 August, is a non-event! Here, a master of
Eastern theology and a specialist in iconography explores this
gospel-event as a revelation of the mystery of Christ and
simultaneously a revelation of our own human identity. What makes
this book special is that it plumbs the riches of Eastern
Christianity from within, but expresses that wealth in a way that
Western Christians can appreciate." -Thomas O'Loughlin, Professor
of Historical Theology, University of Nottingham "A radiant book
about the lovely radiance of Christ on the mountain: and how it
symbolizes the Lord's abiding presence, at once eucharistic and
mysterious, in his Church across time. Highly recommended for
spiritual reading." -Fr. John McGuckin, Columbia University; author
of The Prayer Book of the Early Christians
