James Taylor's 20 year old song Home By Another Way helped me reflect on the Magi and Herod. He sings that to avoid the evil that King Herod represents "It's best to go home by another way." Like the Magi who could not go back to their old way of life after finding God in this baby, we leave behind our familiar gods and keep searching for a deeper relationship with the Living God who gives our lives meaning.
