Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12

Every now and then, life sends a moment that breaks in like a spotlight cracking open a midnight sky. A truth you didn’t see coming. A call you didn’t know you needed. A revelation that changes everything!.

Christians have a name for this kind of holy interruption: Epiphany.
Epiphany celebrates the moment when God revealed his Son to the nations through the strange caravan of star-following travelers we call the Magi.

Max Lucado says God loves to slip into the quiet corners of the world and whisper, “I’m here.” Epiphany is the day we remember that whisper became a cosmic announcement.

Matthew 2:1-12 is not simply a Christmas after-scene. It is a turning of the great wheel of redemptive history. The world is meeting its King.

Let’s walk into the story.

PEACEMAKERS

Jesus calls His followers not simply to be peacekeepers, but to be peacemakers. Peacemaking is not about avoiding conflict, but rather about actively pursuing reconciliation, even when it is costly.  Rooted in the peace we receive from Christ, we are called to extend the same peace to others – our family, our church, and the world.  To make peace is to reflect the heart of God and live as His Children.

Scripture Readings: Matthew 5:1-9, James 3:18, Romans 12:18, Hebrews 12:14

Week 6: I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life

Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

Scripture: John 14:1–7

Jesus doesn’t just show the way—He is the way. He doesn’t just teach truth—He is truth. He doesn’t just offer life—He is life. Today, Pastor Brent will explore where this way leads—and why Jesus is still the only path that brings us home to the Father.
