Pastor Paul explains to us how the Magi were real historical Persian scholars and astrologers who would have studied Jewish prophecy and astronomy. How when they saw the star indicating the birth of the Jewish King, they deliberately set out on a difficult journey — not because of social convention or myth, but because of conviction, purpose, and expectation. Paul encourages us to embrace this concept for our own lives, that faith is not a once-off moment or ritual, but a lifelong journey that demands commitment, sacrifice and willingness to follow God even when the path is hard.
