⭐ The Other Wise Man — Family Theater

Video Description

A Beautiful Christmas Drama of Charity, Sacrifice, and the Search for Christ Chestertonian Introduction “Right is right, even if no one does it; wrong is wrong, even if everyone does it.” — G. K. Chesterton There are stories that shine because they are grand, and others that shine because they are good. The Other Wise Man belongs to the latter: a tale of a man who follows a star not across the skies, but across a lifetime — discovering that love offered to the least of these is love offered to Christ Himself. Chesterton would have cherished this story, for it reminds us that holiness is not found in the triumphant arrival, but in the wandering charity that marks every true disciple of Bethlehem. 🎙️ Synopsis The Other Wise Man is Family Theatre’s deeply moving radio adaptation of Henry Van Dyke’s classic novella The Story of the Other Wise Man. It follows Artaban, a fourth Magi who sets out to join the Wise Men on their journey to Bethlehem. Bearing precious gifts for the newborn King, Artaban is delayed again and again — not by hardship, but by mercy. Each time he stops to help those in need, he sacrifices a part of his treasure, believing he is falling farther from his divine mission. Yet in the end, when he stands at last before the Christ he has sought all his life, he discovers the profound truth: Every act of compassion was a gift to the King. This timeless radio drama remains one of the most cherished Christmas broadcasts of Family Theatre — a meditation on love, sacrifice, and what it truly means to find Christ. 🎧 Why This Episode Is a Listener Favorite A faithful and emotionally powerful adaptation of Van Dyke’s classic Beautiful orchestration and atmospheric sound design A narrative of mercy, vocation, and divine purpose One of Family Theatre’s most beloved Christmas offerings Ideal for Advent reflection and family listening A perfect companion piece to other Nativity broadcasts 📝 Description Experience one of the most moving Christmas stories ever told.
