Why did they bring gold, frankincense, and myrrh—and what did it all mean? In this episode, Stephen Davey explores the deeper significance behind the Magi's visit to Jesus, why their gifts mattered, and how their worship holds meaning for us today. You’ll learn about the cultural and historical backdrop that influenced the Magi’s journey, their role as “King-makers” in Persia, and how their worship defied the politics of their time. Stephen also dives into why Christians don’t need to shy away from the festive elements of Christmas, even if some of them have surprising pagan origins. Discover how the story of the Magi encourages each of us to seek Jesus and offer Him our best, no matter where we’re starting from.
