In Week Six, the final episode of our Advent–Epiphany series, we celebrate the Feast of the Epiphany and reflect on Saint Joseph as the first adorer of Christ.Using Matthew 2:1–12, we explore the visit of the Magi—not with all the answers, but with curiosity, imagination, and wonder. Did they know who they were looking for? Did they bring the “right” gifts on purpose? And what does that mean for how we show up before Jesus today?This conversation moves gently into:Why presence is often the greatest gift we can offer GodHow Adoration doesn't require expertise—just honestyWhat to do when prayer feels boring, intimidating, or out of reachThe role of poverty, humility, boundaries, and community in the spiritual lifeWhy God uses our natural gifts, personalities, and even our emptinessWe also share practical encouragement for anyone new to adoration or feeling stuck in their faith: start small, stay curious, and let God meet you where you are............

We need to start with small things, but we need to have a vision of what we want. One of the things that human behavior scientists would tell us, the idea of setting goals is great, but it is actually useless when it comes to accomplishing anything. We all can give value to how many of our New Year's resolutions never get really even started, right? Because we have outsized our goals. That is called forecasting. What they suggest it might be better to do is back-casting. (Read more…)Here is my homily for the Feast of the Epiphany. I hope you can enjoy itGod Bless and Happy New Year to you all!.

On the Feast of the Epiphany, we're invited to ask a deeper question: Will you allow yourself to be taken, broken, and given? In today's Peace on Earth reflection, we look at the Multiplication of the Loaves and Fish — a profoundly Eucharistic moment where Jesus: takes, gives thanks, breaks, and gives. This isn't just about bread. It's about you. Jesus wants to take you — to delight in you. He wants to give thanks for you. And yes, He may allow you to be broken… so that you can be given to the world. This is how love multiplies. This is how vocations are lived. This is how lives are transformed. As the Christmas season draws to a close, may we surrender again and trust that God can do more with our “yes” than we could ever imagine. May there be peace on earth — and peace in your heart. Amen.   #PeaceOnEarth #Epiphany

We all like celebrations, right? So did the Israelites. It's interesting that God mandated not just solemn assemblies like the Day of Atonement but also joyous ones like the Feast of Tabernacles where people camped out and ate for a whole week. Pastor Ricky will be teaching from the book of Esther focusing on the creation of the feast called Purim. He'll be showing the importance of remembering events through celebration and how these lessons from the past apply to us today.

Evening lessons: Psalms 67, 72; Jeremiah 5; John 2:1-12.  May God be merciful unto us, and bless us, and show us the light of his countenance, and be merciful unto us.

One of the great and important Feasts of the Christian Faith is the Feast of the Circumcision of our Lord. A great question is, "Why is our Lord's Circumcision such an important event?" All of the Feasts that center around something specific that our Lord accomplished (His conception, birth, crucifixion, Resurrection, etc.) reveal to us something that Christ our God accomplished, so very necessary for our salvation. In other words, God became man and by these wondrous acts, paved the way for us to ascend with Him to Paradise. In His Circumcision, our Lord Jesus Christ fulfills the Law, bringing an end to the Old Covenant. And, later, through His Baptism (so tied to His Circumcision), Christ our God inaugurates the New Covenant for the salvation of mankind. Our Lord is the bridge between the Old and New Covenants; He is the way to Paradise.

The Meaning of the Holy Name of Jesus and why we celebrate it as a Feast on January 3. In this easy-to-understand talk, Fr. Chris Alar explains the symbols of Jesus' name, like IHS, and why using God's name in vain is much more than simply swearing.  

Feast of the Epiphany 2026 Gospel Matthew 2:1-12 When Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea, in the days of King Herod,  behold, magi from the east arrived in Jerusalem, saying,  "Where is the newborn king of the Jews? We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him homage." When King Herod heard this, he was greatly troubled,  and all Jerusalem with him. Assembling all the chief priests and the scribes of the people,  He inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. They said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea,  for thus it has been written through the prophet: And you, Bethlehem, land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; since from you shall come a ruler, who is to shepherd my people Israel." Then Herod called the magi secretly  and ascertained from them the time of the star's appearance. He sent them to Bethlehem and said,  "Go and search diligently for the child. When you have found him, bring me word,  that I too may go and do him homage." After their audience with the king they set out. And behold, the star that they had seen at its rising preceded them,  until it came and stopped over the place where the child was. They were overjoyed at seeing the star,  and on entering the house they saw the child with Mary his mother. They prostrated themselves and did him homage. Then they opened their treasures  and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to return to Herod,  they departed for their country by another way.

As usual, we are beginning the new year with a three week fast! As we take stock of the near future and reflect on the recent past, let's make it our goal during this fast to focus not on what we are laying down, but on what we are leaning into! Let's see this season as a time to feast on God's word and His presence. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Feast of the Epiphany centers in the visit of the Magi from the East. While Christmas has focused on the incarnation of our Lord … that is, on God becoming flesh … the season of Epiphany emphasizes the manifestation or self-revelation of God in that same flesh of Christ. The Lord Himself has entered our darkness and rises upon us with the brightness of His true light (Is. 60:1–2). He does so chiefly by His Word of the Gospel, which He causes to be preached within His Church on earth … not only to the Jews but also to Gentiles (Eph. 3:8–10). As the Magi were guided by the promises of Holy Scripture to find and worship the Christ Child with His mother in the house (Matt. 2:5–11), so does He call disciples from all nations by the preaching of His Word to find and worship Him within His Church (Is. 60:3–6). With gold, they confess His royalty; with incense, His deity; and with myrrh, His priestly sacrifice (Matt. 2:11).

Lauretta hosts the program today. She welcomes everyone with a recap of her traveling congestion this morning-there was an accident, offering prayers for all involved. Lauretta informs us that today's focus will be on the Blessed Mother as she discusses the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, which is celebrated today December 8th.  She discusses the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe which is celebrated on Friday December 12th.  Lauretta revels in what a blessing the Virgin Mother truly is for us and encourages us to pray the rosary and seek her intercession. She also chats about St. Nick which was celebrated on Saturday the 6th.  She informs us about Jimmy Lai, a courageous catholic activist for Democracy that is held captive by China.

On the Feast of the Epiphany, we remember the gifts brought to Jesus — gold, frankincense, and myrrh. But the bigger question is this: What three gifts are you offering the Lord? In this Peace on Earth reflection, Father Jonathan Meyer invites us to look honestly at time, talent, and treasure:  • Do we give God our time — even a few minutes a day?  • Do we offer our talents for the good of others and the Church?  • Are we generous with our treasure, trusting God with our hearts? Epiphany isn't just about what the Magi gave long ago — it's about what we choose to give now. May this Christmas season help us offer meaningful gifts from the heart. Happy 11th Day of Christmas. Amen.   #PeaceOnEarth #Epiphany #CatholicReflection

Today is the Feast of the Epiphany and we read from Matthew's Gospel about the 3 Magi who travelled, followed a star over the stable where Jesus was born, and offered Him gifts. What were these gifts and what are their significance? Fr. Kubicki reveals more on today's reflection.

The Magi follow the light of a star to reach Bethlehem and worship Christ.  We too must be aware of the lights that God sends us to bring us closer to Jesus.  These lights vary in nature and appearance.  To be constant in following the light that is Christ, we also need to be aware of other lights that could lead us away from Him. To contact us, please write to comeawaybyyourselves@gmail.com.  Please rate and review Come Away by Yourselves wherever you listen to podcasts. 

Friends of the Rosary,Today, January 3, the Church celebrates the Memorial of the Most Holy Name of Jesus. And the month of January is dedicated to the Holy Name of Jesus.Whenever we pronounce it, we should bow our heads, for the very name reminds us of the greatest favor we have ever received, salvation.The name of Jesus, which means Savior, was revealed to Our Lady at the annunciation by the angel Gabriel: "You shall call His name Jesus."To St. Joseph, the Angel not merely showed the name but explained its meaning: "You shall call His name Jesus, for He shall save His people from their sins."His name was called Jesus, which was called by the Angel before He was conceived in the womb." Luke 2:21.The name of Jesus is a name of infinite mercy, hope, and love. It comforts us and gives us hope for every grace. "If you ask the Father anything in My name, He will give it to you."Persons who played prominent roles in the history of salvation often received their names from God Himself. Adam — man of the earth; Eve — mother of all the living; Abraham — father of many nations; Peter — the rock.The sacred name of the Redeemer, given by God Himself, expressed His mission and the purpose of His existence: to save the human race.The mention of the Holy Name has a kind of sacramental power: it conveys the grace which enables men to think, speak, love, sacrifice, and act like Him.Ave MariaCome, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Father Ron Rolheiser's new book Insane for the Light: A Spirituality for Our Wisdom Years, which is about how to grow old well and be fruitful, first giving your life away and then your death so as to be a blessing. That's a recipe for joy. We also talked about mysticism, St. John of the Cross, and some miraculous experiences in real people's lives that reveal God abiding and deep love, mercy, and patience with us all; that is truly the Good News of the Lord. I really, really enjoyed this book, and this conversation. Father Ron grew up in on a farm on Cactus Lake, Saskatchawan, on the Canadian prairie. He joined the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate in 1966 and was ordained to the priesthood in 1972; he has many degrees in theology and philosophy including a doctorate from the University of Louvain in 1983. He started writing a column, In Exile, over forty years ago, and has also written (by my count) sixteen books. He has been Provincial Superior of his order, worked in its administration in Rome for six years, and taught theology in a number of august institutions. He still goes home to Cactus Lake, especially for Christmas. We recorded this episode on December 9, 2025, the Feast of Our Lady of Gudalupe, and Juan Diego, and also the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary. This will be our Christmas episode too and the last episode of 2025 and the first of the new liturgical year, so in keeping with our tradition I will play some Christmas Carols from Josh and Margot of the Great Space Coaster band with whom I was singing these carols last week. Merry Christmas, Happy New Year. God bless you! Father Ron Rolheiser's website, which includes his books and his column. Father Ron's new book, Insane for the Light (2025), at Penguin and at Amazon.
