In this Easter-season homily, Pastor Ron reflects on Ascension, Pentecost, and the call to carry on Jesus’ mission in times of change and transition. As the church prepares for new beginnings, he speaks honestly about stress, fear, trust, and the importance of staying rooted in God’s promises.

Drawing from Acts and John, Pastor Ron reminds us that Jesus prepared the disciples for life after the ascension—and that same promise of the Holy Spirit is for us today. He connects eternal life not simply with the future, but with relationship: to know God, to trust God, and to live as God’s people in the world.

This message is especially meaningful for anyone walking through change, uncertainty, or leadership transition. Pastor Ron encourages the congregation to resist fear, keep serving, trust one another, and remember that in God there are no true endings—only new beginnings. Jesus’ work is now in our hands, and we are called to be God’s presence in the world.
