We explore Epiphany as a moment of revelation that demands a decision: take the road of the Magi and surrender, or the road of Herod and control. We connect worship, mission, and everyday choices, and invite a fresh start grounded in humility and trust.

• Epiphany as God’s nearness and call to choose
• Two roads contrasted: Magi’s humility vs Herod’s control
• From “Jesus and me” to a Eucharistic mission
• Taking honest inventory of gifts and priorities
• Offering first fruits, not leftovers
• Finding God in poverty, mess, and ordinary love
• Conversion as leaving by a different route
• Maturing faith through trust and constancy
• Christ for all nations and every culture
• Asking for personal epiphanies and embracing the cost

We explore Epiphany as revelation that demands a response, contrasting the Magi’s costly desire with Herod’s fearful refusal. The call is to move under partial light, surrender control, and take concrete steps that reorder life around Christ.

• Epiphany as revelation that forces decision
• The Magi’s desire, risk, and costly gifts
• Herod’s proximity without movement and love of control
• Knowing about Christ versus kneeling before Christ
• Fear disguised as prudence and delay as resistance
• Following the light in Eucharist, Scripture, conscience, and prayer
• Practical steps toward surrender and reordering life
• Encounter that changes direction and habits

We pause at the start of the year to honor Mary as Mother of God and to guard the truth about Christ. We invite listeners to a concrete resolution—pray the rosary daily—and to let grace, not willpower, shape the year ahead.

• why the title Mother of God safeguards Jesus’ divinity
• Mary’s role from Nazareth, Cana, and Calvary into the Church
• motherhood in the order of grace and real intercession
• grace over self-improvement as the path to change
• concrete practices: prayer, fasting, repentance, obedience, trust
• daily rosary as formation that shapes disciples
• entrusting family, fears, and hopes to Mary
• saying yes to God as the key to 2026

Pray the rosary daily. Daily. Place yourself in her care, entrust your family, your fears, your hopes, and say: Yes, Lord.
