This week we celebrate the Ascension of Jesus into heaven. There is plenty of evidence for the historical person of Jesus and his Crucifixion is well documented. His Ascension, however, is a private affair and the only invitees are the Apostles – the ones who knew him best in life and so could offer reliable, eyewitness testimony regarding his Ascension. Yet, people still doubt… and that’s understandable. In our modern age especially, where truth is no longer objective and facts are always in question, skepticism has almost become a virtue. Maybe faith in Jesus is another thing we should be willing to just simply accept.
This week's readings:
Gospel – Luke 24: 46-53
1st Reading – Acts 1: 1-11
Psalm 47
2nd Reading – Ephesians 1: 17-23 OR Hebrews 9: 24-28, 10: 19-23
