Teaching Wise men bring gifts to the child

Jesus is the King worth searching for and worshiping - and God watched over Him every step of the way.

  • The wise men traveled a long, long way to find and worship Jesus. What's something you would travel far for?
  • They gave Jesus their very best treasures. What's a "gift" you could give Jesus - like your kindness, your songs, or your love?
  • God protected Jesus by warning people in dreams. How does it feel to know God watches over you, too?
