The Wise Men Complete Bible Lesson

The Wise Men Complete Bible Lesson brings the amazing story of Matthew 2 to life with hands-on crafts, meaningful discussion, and activities your kids will love.

Perfect for the Christmas season or any time you're teaching about the story of the wise men, this lesson helps children see how the wise men, King Herod, and the religious leaders each responded to the news of Jesus' birth:

1. The wise men traveled far to worship God's promised King and bring Him gifts
2. King Herod was filled with jealousy when he heard about Jesus
3. The religious leaders were too scared or too preoccupied to seek Jesus themselves
   

In this lesson, your kids will be encouraged to examine their own hearts and see if they are responding like the wise men who were eager to worship Jesus, like King Herod who rejected Jesus, or like the religious leaders who were too busy or afraid to seek Jesus for themselves.

This lesson includes helpful teaching notes to support a wide range of ages (Kindergarten–6th grade). You’ll find guidance for gently teaching younger children as well as thoughtful discussion prompts for older kids who are ready to explore more deeply.
