Wesley Church Sermons

At the beginning of a new year, we often focus on looking good—but Epiphany invites us to consider whether we're actually looking in the right direction. In Matthew 2, the Magi follow the star faithfully, but danger enters the story when assumptions replace attention to God's leading, while those who knew the Scriptures best never made the short journey to see Jesus for themselves. This sermon challenges us to ask what we're fixing our eyes on in 2026 and invites us, like the wise men, to kneel in worship and follow the light Christ gives—one faithful step at a time.
