Show Notes
This week Fran and Sean focus on two New Testament texts: Acts 1:6–14 and John 17:1–11. They talk about the ascension of Jesus and the mission of the church, the importance of thinking about space and time in Luke's narrative, and the meaning of glory and eternal life in the gospel of John.

and to an article by By the Well host Robyn Whitaker, 'From Cross to Ascension: The Surprising Locus of Salvation in Luke–Acts', Australian Biblical Review 65 (2017), 47–60.
