For we have seen his star in the East, and have come to worship him." When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him; and assembling all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. They told him, "In Bethlehem of Judea; for so it is written by the prophet: `And you, O Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; for from you shall come a ruler who will govern my people Israel.' M A T T H E W 2 : 1 - 1 2 F E A S T O F E P I P H A N Y G o s p e l R e a d i n g Then Herod summoned the wise men secretly and ascertained from them what time the star appeared; and he sent them to Bethlehem, saying, "Go and search diligently for the child, and when you have found him bring me word, that I too may come and worship him." When they had heard the king they went their way; and lo, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came to rest over the place where the child was.

  • I'm So Glad to Be Here with You Today
    1 Epiphany of Our Lord Sunday Jan. 3, 2016 at Wicker Park Lutheran Church Good morning and Happy New Year to you all! I’m so glad to be here with you today, thank you to Pastor Jason for sharing the pulpit on this Epiphany of our Lord Sunday. Now, for me, living with my spouse who’s has been really excited over Star Wars: The Force Awakens since it came out, it’s hard not to think about this epic War in the Stars when I think of Epiphany. As we heard in the reading from Matthew, a majestic star guides the magi to the place where Mary and the baby Jesus are staying. There seems to be light and dark forces at play in this cosmic story. The dark, the plot of King Herod to kill the little King of the Jews, and the light of the magi journeying to show their devotion to this small Savior of all nations-against all odds. For fear of stretching this parallel too thin I will move away from analogies to Star Wars. Instead, what does it mean to have an epiphany? According to most bible commentaries Epiphany means the “manifestation of our Lord.” God sent God’s son to be born a human being. Previously in the Old Testament, God was present with the people in many different forms: pillars of fire, or clouds, or a burning bush or a rainbow, but now, now it’s different. God came to us, put on our flesh in Jesus-so God could be close to us, to feel what we feel, to journey alongside us as in the road to Emmaus, to be Emmanuel-God with us.1 Reading through this story in Matthew, I cannot help but ask questions of it.

    Tour of the Holy Lands - Petra As the sun goes down we head to a spot called “Wadi Rum” for a camp-out. The last bit of sun is peeking through the clouds. We can see outlines of giant rock formations against the sky. Imagine! We look forward to daybreak so we can see it all. After tucking our backpacks into our tents - 2 kids to a tent - we eat and join the line dancing with the local Arabs. It’s pitch black now, but before crawling into our bunks, our guide says, “Turn off your flashlights and look up.” “Ooooooo!,” we reply. For there in the sky are more stars than we’ve ever seen at once -- even shooting stars. Our guide then says, “Now, pretend we’re in Bible times and somewhere in these tents are wise men resting, as they travel through this land, following a star to find a new king. Think about that as you fall asleep tonight and we’ll talk about them tomorrow.” (Matthew 2:1-11) Tour of the Holy Lands - Petra Page 1 of 17 www.biblewise.com Copyright © 2009, BibleWise.

But with even more climbing a few miles away, it’s time for everyone to head back to the bus and on to Petra!

  • Epiphany 3 January 2021
    Epiphany 3 January 2021 I did some research this past week. Turns out that after the 3 wise men left, 3 wiser women arrived. They also brought 3 gifts -- fresh diapers, casseroles for the week, and wine! In the mid-1960s, a Roman Catholic cardinal and a priest Scripture scholar found themselves seated at the same table at a dinner party. The cardinal immediately put forth his grievance. “You know, Father, there are some of your kind these days who are saying we don’t know how many Magi there were.” “I am not one of them,” replied the scholar. “I’m glad to hear that…” The cardinal did not have a chance to finish. “There were 6,” stated the scholar. “6?” blustered the cardinal. “How do you figure six?” “Well, in the reliquary at the Cologne Cathedral there are the heads of 3 wise men, and in the reliquary at the Milan Cathedral, there are the heads of 3 more wise men. 3 plus 3 equals 6!” At one time there were 5 heads of John the Baptist in the city of Rome alone! I know that’s been cleared up, not sure about all those magi in Cologne & Milan! But let’s dig into the text a bit. Matthew’s story of the Magi is built on a massive, many-layered irony. The Magi are Gentiles, and through their own calculations, know about the birth of the king of the Jews. The Jewish leaders, who have the prophecy of the birth in their Scriptures -- are ignorant of it.
