Fear Doesn't Stop Us

On Epiphany Sunday, we hear the familiar story of the magi—and the often-overlooked shadow of Herod. Christ is born, yet the world still feels unchanged. Fear still looms. Violence still threatens hope.And yet, the magi refuse to let fear stop them. They follow the light, honor Christ, and return home by another way. As this series comes to a close and a new year begins, we proclaim that our journey continues—and fear will not have the final word.
