Beyond finding the new king, what may the wise men have been searching for within themselves by undertaking such a long journey? Do you think they will have found it?
Share or reflect on your own experiences of real or symbolic journeys to reach a meaningful destination, and how the ups and downs of journeying and arrival affected you.
Explore the faithful journeying of the wise men, presumably on camels, across desert terrain, to find the new king. Remember that Jesus and his family also became refugees. How might these journeys reflect the perils of today’s migrants crossing continents and seas to reach safety?
