About this episode
Multiple ancient texts tell us that forty days after Jesus was raised from the dead, He ascended into heaven. But what exactly does that mean? If Jesus was victorious over sin, death, and the grave, why wouldn't He have stayed with His followers in Jerusalem? Indeed, it would have been easier to convince a skeptical work of the truth of the resurrection if Jesus' physical body was still walking around on earth. Join us as we explore Jesus' ascension and what it teaches us about heaven, earth, being human, and God's ultimate plan.
