Later this week, Christians around the world will observe the Feast of the Ascension, the day that Jesus Christ ascended into heaven before his apostles' eyes. In this Musings on Faith podcast, The Rev. Ed Bartle, Associate Rector of St. George Episcopal Church, tells us why Ascension Day is considered one of the most important ecumenical observances in Christian churches. He also describes the joy the Apostles felt as they witnessed the Ascension and why we, as Christians, should feel the same joy.
