Episode 17: Christmas Perspective - The Magi

00:00 / 00:42:27

Hosts: Emily Trotter and John Fugh, Jr.

What would it be like for you to re-evaluate your Christmas perspective? Herod was intimidated by the birth of the Messiah while the religious leaders were indifferent. But the Magi — a group of foreigners — embraced the birth of Jesus. They uprooted their lives, traveled a great distance, and worshiped the new born King of the Jews even though they didn’t fully understand the significance of His birth. Listening to the prompting of the Holy Spirit, they simply took the next step that they knew was right.

Scripture: Matthew 2:1-12, 2 Corinthians 4:7-18
