This sermon is available in audio form through Mixcloud below. For a transcript (not word perfect, I never read direct from my notes) see below. It's based on: Matthew 2.1-12, Ephesians 3.1-12 and Isaiah 60.1-6.
Today we celebrate Epiphany, although it will take us the next few weeks to fully unpack what that means as we move through the Epiphany season. Epiphany and the season of Epiphany is about Jesus being revealed, those first signs of who He is and what this might mean for us.
Traditionally today marks the visit of the Magi to Jesus, Jesus turning water into wine at the wedding in Cana and Jesus’ Baptism by John and according to that tradition they all happened on the same day (not the same year though, that would have been a busy day). The latter two we have to look forward to in the coming weeks but today we celebrate the visit of the Magi to Jesus.

AuthorAn Anglican Curate in my 20's I was raised in an Anglican Church, went to a Youth Club run by an Evangelical Church, attended a Baptist Church while at Uni and was a member of a New Monastic Community after graduating. As such my faith has been influenced by these experiences and traditions into what I hope is a more rounded viewpoint. Archives
