About this listen

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
