Who were the Wise Men, really? Enrich your Christmas and Epiphany celebrations with this fascinating story about the Magi.
We celebrate Christmas every year and experience the incredible richness of the Nativity story, but how much do we really know and understand about the Wise Men? In One Star, Three Kings, the real story of the wise men–their ancient origins, their journey, and their gifts–comes to life in all its wonder and depth.
Join Balthasar, Caspar, and Melchior as they follow the star to Bethlehem in this fascinating retelling that blends Scripture, history, and legend. Learn the deeper traditions surrounding the Wise Men, their prophetic mission, and their role in the Feast of Epiphany. Follow the kings from their possible childhood homes to “the East” where they joined together to study the stars.

Jesus Study Guide (Student/Study Guide)
$12.99In this six-session video Bible study (DVD/digital downloads sold separately), bestselling author Max Lucado explores the life and character of Jesus, helping participants become more familiar with the man at the center of the greatest story ever told. As Max explains in this study, for thirty-three years Jesus felt everything that we have ever felt: weakness, weariness, rejections. He got colds. His feelings got hurt. His feet grew tired. His head ached.
To think of Jesus in such terms almost seems irreverent. It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. Clean up the manure from around the manger. Wipe the sweat out of his eyes. Pretend he never snored or hit his thumb with a hammer. There is something about keeping Jesus divine that keeps him distant, packaged, and predictable.
But we have to remember that by Jesus becoming human, God made it possible for us to see him and hear his voice. If we want to know what matters to God, all we need to do is look in the Bible to see what matters to Jesus. If we want to know what God is doing in our world, we need only ponder the words of Jesus. By learning more about the person Jesus was and is, we come to understand more clearly the people we were created to be.
Jesus will inspire group members to spend time at the foot of the cross and search the heart of the one who would rather die for them than live without them.
