    Let's face it church attendance in America is at an all-time low, most Americans avoid church like the plague....WHY?

    Well I have a few reasons: 1. The Church no longer emphasizes the Gospel message (Death, Burial, and Resurrection of Jesus), The message is prosperity, feel good stuff, and political agendas. Jesus said "If I be lifted up I will draw ALL men unto me" , The primary purpose of the church is to ...read more

    One of the most inspiring aspects of this account of the ascension is the realization that someday we will have mthe same capacities demonstrated by our Saviour on this occasion. A simple statement in the Word of God clearly settles the issue for me.

    In the story of Jesus' ascension, God reminds us to leave God's work to God (including our worry), to trust God's power to guide our witness, and to be prepared for Jesus' return.

And as Jesus interacts with his disciples, we see him shift their focus from temporal to eternal; he broadens ...read more
