A word about Epiphany

Epiphany celebrates the light of God given to the world through Jesus. There is some variation in the way the date is scheduled. Many celebrate it on January 6, twelve days after Christmas, while others observe it on the first Sunday after New Year's. This year those two methods coincided. Some Christians observe Epiphany as a day to commemorate Jesus' visit from the Magi, while still other Christians choose to reflect on Jesus' baptism.

The church calendar is not Scripturally mandated; it is a man-made, man-conceived tool purposed to strengthen the Church body. Keeping that in mind, it is obvious that there is not a right or wrong way to reflect on Scripture during any given season. Observing the church calendar is not an obligation of being a Christian. It's just a tool. If you find it to be a helpful tool, great. If not, don't follow it. That's what I think anyway.
