Our lives are a constant tug-of-war for attention, where the true risk is allowing trivial pursuits to steal energy from what is indispensable. We need more than just freedom from distraction; we need the genuine power to direct our full attention to what truly makes an eternal difference.
This purposeful living, centered on what truly matters, is a gift from a Savior whose focus is always, unwaveringly, on us, and comes to us by his Spirit through the Word. As we step into the second half of the church year, we shift our journey to delve deeply into Christ's transformative teachings, urging us to give them our undivided attention.
Watch the most recent messages at Ascension.
The messages at Ascension begin with a part of the Bible and explain and apply that content to our lives. Though the Bible is a big book, all of God’s testimony to people centers on the person and work of his Son, Jesus Christ. Ascension’s messages reflect this Christ-centered focus.
That’s a great question! There are a few reasons the pastor will commonly wear a robe, but the primary purpose is to mask the man and focus the listeners on God. There are many churches today where the pastor does not use a robe - that’s totally fine, and sometimes Pastor Ben just prefers a suit too. 😊
We sure do! Ascension on Air is our church’s official podcast. You can stream it on most major platforms, including its home on Spotify.
