Your Christ is Too Small (The Ascension)
Your Christ is Too Small (The Ascension)
Topic: Ascension, Easter, Great Commission, Holy Spirit, Jesus
Sermon given by the Rev. Nathan Stomberg on Ascension Sunday (5/29/2022).
When we live like the rest of the world around us, it is because our idea of ministry is too small, our heaven is too small, and our Christ is too small. Indeed, without the Ascension there is no reason to rejoice at all. But thanks be to God, that is not the case. Let us go forth with great joy, just as the disciples did, for our savior Jesus Christ has ascended into heaven, and he will return in the same way as he departed.
Readings: Acts 1:1-11; Psalm 47; Ephesians 1:15-23; Luke 24:49-53
