Transfiguration leading down into Lent

February 24, 2025 Mark Brians

p/c Allesandro Bellone via unspalsh

Like Peter we finish-off the season which included Candlemas, the visit of the Magi, the Baptism of Jesus, the Wedding at Cana, and Jesus’ proclamation in the synagogue that he has come to proclaim good news to the poor and freedom to the captive, with awestruck desire to keep it going like this: “Let’s build three tabernacles…” (Matt 17:4).

But now we come to that moment where the glory must break-out (Is. 9:1-2, 58:8; Matt. 4:16). We can no longer be kept safe from its fiery burnings, from the living flame of love (Ex. 3:2-3; Song. 8:6; Is. 33:14).

…On this night we gather with memorial portions of our Christmas greens (Christmas Trees, wreaths, kadomatsu, boughs of holly falalalala-lala-lala, etc.) and make of them a bonfire. We pray the evening service, share a feast, sing psalms and spiritual songs, and make merry (Eph. 5:19). It is the twelfth and last day of Christmas on which we celebrate all the gifts our True Love has given to us (Rom. 12:6-8)…

Power Point and Epiphany House Blessings

January 16, 2023 Mark Brians

…When did the average pastor stop considering it his duty to regularly, at least annually, visit the homes of his parish?

Historically this happened no less than once a year. At Epiphany the priest(s) would make their way around the homes of the parish, drive-out darkness, bestow a blessing, hedge it with the Name of the Triune God, and meet with the family in the dwelling they called their own…
