Sermon:
The End and the Beginning
The stories of the Ascension make the bridge from the Jesus of Nazareth, bodily present on the earth, to the Living Christ, present to us in the Holy Spirit. In profound ways, it is both an ending and a beginning. What is it that ends for you in Jesus’ departure; and what begins for you in the power of his reign?
