<p>(67) Ascension Sunday. <b>Our Question: How do I experience God?</b></p><p>Join us today for our lengthy discussion of the story of the Ascension. What do you make of it?</p><p><br></p><p>We struggle with the second reading and the Gospel. </p><p><br></p><p>After our recording Laura found this great quote from Richard Rohr re: the "Great Commision" at the end of Matthew's gospel. In our discussion Marci got us there anyway but it would have been nice to have had this then! </p><p>" If I wanted to create a great people, what I’ve got to do is get them outside of their country, their religion, their nationality, by saying: “Go give the message to everybody else,” and then you will find yourself converted by the people you thought you were supposed to convert. We call it “reverse mission.”</p><p><a href='https://cac.org/podcasts/reframing-the-great-commission/'>https://cac.org/podcasts/reframing-the-great-commission/</a></p><p><br></p><p><a href='https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/051726-Ascension'>The Sunday Readings</a></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><b>Thank you for listening</b>!
