January 4, 2015 “What the Wise Men Knew”

Pastor Tracy continues her exploration of the parallels between the issues and players at the time of Jesus’s birth and today’s social justice concerns.  For Epiphany Sunday she discussed the three Wise Men – – what they knew about hope, justice for all the people and  the transformative leadership needed to challenge Roman power.  She then asks where  the downtrodden and dispossessed of today are looking for a change agent.  Might it be in churches like ours?  Scripture:  Matthew 2:1-12.
