Dennis encourages reflection on the story of the magi as we enter the Epiphany season, highlighting their journey and gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. He emphasises that the magi, likely wise men rather than kings, were guided by a star rather than human authority, symbolising humility and divine revelation. The narrative contrasts the magi worship with Herod’s paranoia, illustrating that God’s kingdom reveals itself to seekers rather than the powerful. Dennis invites us to approach the Scriptures with an open heart, learning from the magi’s faith and attentiveness to God’s guidance.
