The story of the shepherds in Luke 2:8-20 shows us how God often uses the unexpected to reveal His extraordinary purposes. These humble shepherds were the first to hear the life-changing news of Jesus’ birth. Their response is a powerful example for us today—they believed the message by faith, obediently sought the Savior, and joyfully shared the good news with others.

As we continue through our "Christmas Perspectives" series, we’re looking at the birth of Jesus through the eyes of those who experienced it firsthand. From the wonder of the shepherds to the wisdom of the Magi, each perspective reveals God’s desire to connect with us through Christ.

Who were the Wise Men, and why did they travel so far to find Jesus? These weren’t ordinary travelers—they were scholars, seekers, and worshippers, guided by prophecy and faith.

In this message, we unpack the incredible story of the Wise Men from Matthew 2:1-12, exploring their knowledge of God’s Word, their pursuit of truth, and their ultimate act of worship. Along the way, we examine the contrasting responses to Jesus’ arrival: Herod’s fear, the Jewish leaders' indifference, and the Wise Men’s joyful worship.

Discover what their journey teaches us about seeking Christ with intention, worshiping with our whole hearts, and following God’s lead—even when the road is long and uncertain.
