The Epiphany, the Magi, and the House Blessings - Ep. 41

Donald Paul Maddox and Fr. Steve Williams Episode 41

Why is the Feast of the Epiphany is so important? 

In this episode, we dive into the story of the visit of the Magi, their journey to worship Christ, and the significance of their gifts—gold, frankincense, and myrrh. These three gifts weren’t just random—they reveal who Jesus is and what He mission will be.

We also explore the beautiful Catholic tradition of the Epiphany house blessing, done with blessed chalk. Discover how this traditional practice invites God’s protection and peace into your home throughout the new year. 

Whether you're a practicing Catholic looking to grow deeper in your faith or someone curious about Epiphany traditions like the Magi and house blessings, this video is for you.
