Star Word Practices and Reflections

On Ephipany Sunday, the day that we remember the star that led the magi (you might know them as the wise men) to Jesus, we begin a prayer practice using Star Words. We choose a word at random and use the word as a guiding star for the year. How do we do that? This page will be updated with Star Word Practices and Star Word Reflections over the coming weeks. Follow it for weekly ideas and suggestions.

Star Word Practice • Reflect on scripture. Google “Bible verses about (insert your Star Word here.)” What verses speak to you? Try to find a mix of Old and New Testament verses. Listen for scripture in church or in your own   devotional times and if something calls your Star Word to mind, write it down.  Star Word ReflectionPlayfulness
