This Is My Beloved Son: The Transfiguration of Christ

Andreas Andreopoulos
Foreword by Metropolitan Kallistos of Diokleia

“There are several books that examine the Transfiguration from a strictly biblical perspective or that discuss its reception and effect within early and later Christianity. There are also accounts of saints who experienced the continuous Transfiguration of Christ—the mystical experience of the outpouring of the light of God—as it was imparted to them. Here I did not want to restrict myself to the voice of knowledge or to the voice of experience. I tried to write partly with the approach of a theologian and teacher and partly with the approach of someone who tries to tell a story. But mostly, I approached the event from the perspective of a person who takes the narrative, the tradition, and the significance of the Transfiguration seriously at all levels.”
