The Magi


They say that: In Asia, many non-Christians see theologians, priests and religious as "knowing everything" about God (imagine we even try to define the Trinity).
But it seems what people want to see and hear from us is how we experience God.

Why were the Magi wise men? They used experiential learning.
"To learn by experience, one has to experience first. Then reflect on that experience to extract the learning." (quite basic, isn't it?)
By following the star, they experienced both the Herod and the Jesus... after which
they were never the same again.
