By its very nature, an epidemic is something you can't stop. You either quarantine yourself from it or inevitably catch it. The same is true of the child born at Christmas. The truth about his identity is undeniable and its effect on human lives is unstoppable. This week, Jesus gives us one more glimpse of his glory prior to the solemn and somber days of Lent. Just as he prepared his disciples for his journey to the cross, the glory he revealed at his transfiguration prepares us to watch him suffer and die and gives us the confidence that Lent always leads to Easter.
