Mission Control | Ron Merrell
About this episode
Pastor Ron Merrell discusses the significance of Jesus' ascension and its implications for believers today.

In Week 2 of our Lift Off series, Mission Control, Pastor Ron Merrell walks through the ascension of Jesus to reveal what Christ is doing right now and why His reign, His intercession, and His Spirit change everything for believers today. Through Luke 24:50-53, Acts 1:8-9, Hebrews 1:3, Romans 8:33-34, John 14:16-18, and Matthew 28:19-20, this sermon shows that the ascension was not Jesus leaving us behind. It was Jesus taking His place as reigning King, advocating High Priest, and the One who sends the Holy Spirit to empower His church.

If you have ever felt like you need to control everything, be perfect, or be stronger than you really are, this sermon points you back to the grace of Jesus and the constant help of His presence.
