The Coronation of Jesus

Along with celebrating the baptisms of Oscar and Lucy, we will celebrate the Feast of the Ascension of Our Lord. In the creed, we confess that Jesus ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. What does it mean that Jesus “ascended into heaven”? Where and what is heaven? Where did he go? And what does it mean that he “sat down at the right hand of the Father?” Was he tired? Does God the Father even have hands? The answers to these child-like but excellent questions turn out to have huge ramifications for our faith and life in Jesus. Come and see!
