The Other Wise Man

Based on Henry Van Dyke's beloved classic tale from 1895, this Gospel Films production tells the story of Artaban, the fourth wise man who sets out to find the newborn King with precious gifts. When he stops to help a dying man, he misses the caravan to Bethlehem and begins a 33-year quest that takes him across ancient lands. Along his journey, Artaban encounters people in need and gives away his treasures one by one to help them. Though he never reaches Jesus in Bethlehem, his acts of compassion and sacrifice reveal the profound truth that serving others is serving the King. A timeless story about faith, charity, and the true meaning of devotion that has touched hearts for over a century.
