Holy Trinity Catholic Church
In a homily blending biblical scholarship, historical realism, and a touch of humor, Deacon Wes Turton unpacks the Epiphany as more than a picturesque scene—it’s the dramatic moment Christ is made manifest to the Gentiles. Through a close reading of Scripture and historical context, he argues that the Magi’s gifts—gold, frankincense, and myrrh—arrived long after the manger and likely funded the Holy Family’s flight into Egypt. More than ancient trivia, this homily challenges the faithful to recognize God’s generosity and to ask whether we’ve truly accepted the most important Christmas gift: His Son.
