Don't believe your eyes.

We are all in search of something that's hard to find - something that transcends time, supersedes success, and outlives life. And while we are all searching in many places (right or wrong), it just so happens that the one who provides everything we are looking for is the same one who has been on a quest for us. This week we’re talking about our quest for authenticity. With every need we’ve talked about in this series (identity, community, credibility, purpose), there are ultimate realities and cheap imitations. Jesus’ transfiguration shows us that the glorious life he came to bring us—while often hidden beneath apparent weakness, suffering, and defeat—is in fact the real deal. Accept no substitutes!
