🎯 IN THIS EPISODE: What really happened on the mountain of Transfiguration, and why did Peter want to stay there? In this episode Tyler, Maron, and Barry dive into Matthew 17 and Peter's mountaintop moment with Jesus at the Transfiguration. We explore what it means when God transforms us, why Peter wanted to build tents and stay on the mountain, and how mountaintop experiences shape our faith journey. Plus, hear updates on Grace Church's Wicked production, the Grace Care Center Christmas Store, and Tyler's book club adventures (including some awkward celebrity encounters). ⏰ TIMESTAMPS: 00:07 Podcast Introduction 01:05 Cringe Moments & Family Business 01:40 Wizard of Oz Opening Night 02:27 Grace Church Christmas Store 05:04 Holiday Traditions & Decorating 05:52 Upcoming Podcast Schedule & Guest Preacher 06:49 Barry Family & Theater Involvement 09:23 Maron's Preaching & Academic Update 10:56 Tyler's New Book Club 13:58 Tyler's Solo Work Retreat 15:16 Funny Food Stories 15:43 Transition to Peter Mini-Series 16:12 Maron's Sermon: The Transfiguration 17:20 Preaching for Specific People 18:15 The Transfiguration: Matthew 17 21:16 Moses & Jesus: Mountain Parallels 23:06 Jesus as the New Exodus 24:07 Light, Darkness, and the Cross 26:32 Purpose of the Transfiguration 31:58 Peter's "Can I Touch the Hands?"
