Ascension Year A

from Nerds At Church Hosted by Nerds At Church

Join Rev. Emily E. Ewing (they) and Rev. Kay Rohloff (she) and special guest Rory Rohloff (he) to explore new and nerdy connections to the scripture for Ascension Day, which falls on May 18th this year, including our deep dive into UFOs! The scripture we refer to for this episode can be found here. Rory recommended the podcast Our Strange Skies as well as The Saucer Life for those interested in more UFO podcastery. For past Ascension episodes, check out how our deep dive with Jessica Waller into how a body ascends through the atmosphere, and our deep dive with Rev. Harold Vanicek into the aerodynamics of air travel. Emily also mentioned this year’s Lent 4 episode deep dive into eyesight. Kay mentioned the French story of Jeanne Pouchain, who spent years trying to prove she was alive. Find the Far Side comic Rory mentioned here.
