Epiphany celebrates Christ’s revelation to all people through the worship of the magi, reminding us that Jesus is revealed beyond tradition and history and still calls us today to seek Him, recognize His presence, and be transformed by worship.
The week between Christmas and the New Year invites us to use these quiet days between to slow down, reflect, and rest in the presence of the Lord through stillness, scripture, and trust in His guidance.
Most people think war looks like explosions, uniforms, and some guy yelling into a radio while things burn. That’s Hollywood.
Real wars—the ones that stick—are usually won before anyone pulls a trigger.
Every few years, somebody dusts off that 2007 YouTube-special “documentary” Zeitgeist like it’s forbidden knowledge smuggled out of the Vatican basement.
The story of Christmas is, at its heart, the story of God’s love. It is the story of a Creator who loved His people so deeply that He could not leave us lost and separated from Him.
