The Ascension of the Lord

Bishop Barron’s Sunday Sermons - Catholic Preaching and Homilies - A podcast by Bishop Robert Barron

The feast of the Ascension is meant to awaken hope. In Jesus, risen from the dead and ascended to the right hand of the Father, our lowly human nature participates in the very life of God. In the light of the ascension, therefore, we are permitted to hope for a way of being, elevated and perfected beyond our imagining.
