The Pentecast: Day 34 - Lewis Parker

Welcome to Day 34 of the Pentecast on LOVECHURCH — The Podcast. Today, Tim is joined by worship leader Lewis Parker as they reflect on Acts 1:1–11 — the powerful moment when Jesus ascends into heaven, leaving behind a stunned group of disciples and a world-changing commission.

As Jesus is taken up before their eyes, the disciples stand staring into the sky. But then two angels arrive with a gentle rebuke: “Why do you stand here looking into the sky?” It’s a heavenly interruption that prompts earthly action. Lewis notes how worship and vision must always lead to mission — our gaze toward heaven fuels our hands and feet for the work on earth.

The message is clear: don’t just admire Jesus, follow him. His parting command wasn’t just to worship but to go and make disciples — to be witnesses to the ends of the earth, empowered by the Spirit.

Let their conversation encourage you today: worship is the wellspring, but mission is the overflow.

Join them in praying for a worshipping Church that moves — fuelled by heaven, sent to the world. See you tomorrow for Day 35.
