Episode notes

On the Second Sunday of Epiphany, Fr Sam reflects on the difference between seeking explanations about God and receiving revelation from God. Centered on John the Baptist’s declaration, “Here is the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world,” this episode explores how God reveals Himself most fully not through ideas, but through the cross.

Epiphany, we are reminded, reaches its deepest expression in Christ’s self-giving love — where human brokenness meets divine forgiveness. The sermon invites listeners to approach faith not as something to be fully explained, but as a mystery to be encountered, participated in, and lived through repentance, grace, and sacramental life.
