Is what we want always what we need? We know that's often not the case. How about when it comes to what kind of a hero we want at the center of our faith? Sometimes we find ourselves wanting a conquering hero with armies of angels. But the Bible's Jesus looks very different than that. Over the next weeks, we will find out just how this unlikely Jesus is exactly the kind of hero we need.
Today, we see Jesus appear in glory as the Son of God. Before he suffered as man’s substitute, Jesus gave his Church a glimpse of the glory that he set aside to be our Savior. See how much he loves us! The God of all glory became a man to suffer and die for us, just as Moses and the Prophets had foretold. He is exactly the Savior we need—a holy and powerful Savior!
