Wonder - Week 2 | Rejoice

Foreign experts following a bright star meet a city that’s unsettled and a religion that won’t leave the temple — a tension between human cleverness and the strange, small place where God shows up. This sermon digs into the awkwardness of the Magi: esteemed astrologers who are led to a poor home in Bethlehem while Jerusalem stays safely at home. It names the modern parallel — we still look for meaning in power, prestige, and polished answers, and miss the surprising places where life truly changes. The message traces three threads: the gifts and limits of human wisdom, the need for revelation that flips our assumptions, and the way wonder moves into worship. Expect clear, grounding reflections that make humility feel like an opening, not a defeat, and an honest invitation to be unsettled and grateful. Hear how a newborn’s obscurity rewrites what really matters and stirs a joy worth seeking.
