Pastor Wes reflects on Matthew 2 and the journey of the Magi, exploring their unique gifts and the deeper truths of the Epiphany story. He highlights the Magi’s status as outsiders and how their search for the Christ child reflects our own spiritual journeys. Through humor and insight, Pastor Wes considers their mistaken visit to Herod’s palace and the dangers of power, contrasting it with the humility of Christ’s birth. He invites us to ask three guiding questions for the new year: “What are you searching for? Why are you searching for it? How are you searching?” Reminding us of God’s grace when we lose our way, he inspires us to follow God’s light with faith and purpose.
