Part 8
A Star for the Nations
Matthew 2:1–18
The Christmas story does not end at the manger. It expands outward to the nations. In A Star for the Nations, you will follow the surprising journey of the Magi and discover why Gentile scholars were among the first to worship the newborn King. This message explores the meaning of the star, the tension it created in Jerusalem, and the deep biblical roots that connect ancient prophecy, global politics, and God’s sovereign plan. You will see how the birth of Jesus confronts earthly power, fulfills God’s promises to Abraham, and declares that the Savior has come not just for Israel, but for the whole world.
