Boldly Living out our Lives in the Light of Faith


Epiphany is the season of light and brightness. The Christ child has come into the world in radiant beauty and joy. This is the season of hope and self-giving. Just as the three kings traveled so far in order to honor the newborn Christ, so too are we called to go to whatever length required of us to proclaim Jesus as our Lord and King.

What length are we willing to go demonstrate the light of Christ’s hope to the world? How far are we willing to spiritually travel to proclaim him Lord and King of all creation? Like the three kings, are we willing to take the journey’s risk? Are we willing to face the terrible Herod’s of this world by standing up to global and local atrocities?

Epiphany is the season in which we are bathed in the radiance of Christ. It is the season that calls us to enlighten all nations and peoples regarding the Good News of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Epiphany leaves those who proclaim Christ as the Incarnate Word made Flesh no dark shadows to hide. It is the season in which we are called out to boldly live out our faith amidst the darkness of the world.
