The decorations are down, the trees are at the curb, and the stores have already moved on to the next holiday. For many, the end of the Christmas season brings a vague sense of disappointment—a feeling that something was missing. In this week’s sermon from **Holy Trinity Silicon Valley**, Deacon Cindy Miller explores why the "holiday" often feels hollow when the true hope of Christ is forgotten or secularized.
As we enter the season of **Epiphany**, Deacon Cindy reflects on the journey of the Magi—the "wisemen" who traveled thousands of miles to find the newborn King. By examining the different ways people respond to the arrival of Jesus—through fear, passivity, or worship—we are challenged to look at our own hearts.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
The Secular vs. The Sacred:Why a colleague’s comment about Christmas being a "secular holiday" prompted a deeper look at the light that continues even after the season ends.
The Mystery Revealed: How Epiphany marks the revelation of Jesus to the entire world, offering redemption to both Jews and Gentiles alike.
True Worship: Lessons from the Magi on honoring God for "who He is", rather than just what He has done for us.
Daily Offerings: Practical ways to worship God throughout the week by offering back what is most valuable to us—our time, our trust, and our love for others.
Join us as we move into the New Year with a renewed focus on the hope that doesn't get packed away with the decorations.

In this sermon Mayo Adigun delves into Jesus's Parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus. He unpacks the profound warning that our possessions can possess *us*, blinding us to the suffering of those at our very gates. The parable serves not just as a tale about the afterlife, but as an urgent alarm for the living, confronting us with the reality that how we use our resources has eternal consequences.
