Epiphany: The Season of Glory by Fleming Rutledge
The feast of Epiphany and its following season are not as well observed as they should be. Many of us associate Epiphany with the visit of the Magi but don’t know much more about it. In this short volume, priest and theologian Fleming Rutledge expounds the primary biblical texts and narrative arc of the season, inviting us to discover anew “the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.”

A Liturgy for Home Blessing
This guide for the blessing of a home may be used at any time of the year, but Epiphany – the season of light, revelation and mission – is a wonderful time for a family, a group of friends, a church community group or some neighbors to rededicate the places we live to hospitality, holiness, and the presence of Christ.
