Show Notes

We are all likely familiar with the story of the "Wise Men" at Christmas. Every year we hear songs like "We Three Kings" and see Nativity displays with finely dressed men bowing at the manger, presenting their gifts to Jesus. We laud these "wise men" for following the star and locating by their wisdom the Savior of the Nations.

But what if I told you we got it wrong? What if these "Wise Men" weren't followers of God - but rather enemies of His people? What would that mean for Christmas...and for Christians?

In this sermon, Pastor Kevin walks through the classic Matthew 2 text on the "Wise Men" and shows us why we ought to be open to worldly wisdom, be wary of worldly wisdom, and see to whom it all points.
