In every issue of Spirituality & Health magazine, we are now printing an excerpt from a book we think you and your friends will enjoy reading and discussing. Our March/April 2007 selection Jesuit priest John Dear's exploration of the many meanings in the Gospel story of Jesus transfiguration (Matthew 17: 1-8). This is your resource kit to help you organize, promote, and host a Spirituality & Health Book Group. • Share the links on this page as a way of inviting your friends to join you for a discussion of Transfiguration. Use the "Email this Book Group Resource Kit" feature at right. • In an excerpt from the book, Dear compares Jesus' disciples, who were afraid of the change they saw in Jesus, to people today. He asserts that Jesus' message to his followers and to us is plain: "Live life to the full! Live my life of love and peace!"
