In this message, Minister Mark Ashton explores the powerful story of the Star of Bethlehem in Matthew 2:1–12, showing how God uses light, signs, and Scripture to guide people toward Jesus. This Christmas season, Mark unpacks why the star appeared, what the Magi understood, how Herod resisted God’s revelation, and how the same God still speaks to us today in ways we can understand.
This sermon launches our Christmas series “Lights of Christmas: Witness the Wonder”—a journey through the characters, signs, and moments that prepared the world for the arrival of Jesus. Together we look at how God leads step by step, how He uses creation, circumstances, people, His Word, and His Spirit to draw us near, and how the star points us to the true Light of the World.
If you’re longing for direction, clarity, peace, or renewed faith, this message will help you open your heart, look up, and follow God’s leading just like the Magi. Whether you’re exploring faith or growing deeper as a disciple, this teaching invites you to pause, pray, and ask: How is God speaking to you today?
