It's essential to the Gospel, but we rarely talk about it. The good news of Jesus includes his life, death, resurrection, and future return--but what about his ascension? Though often neglected or misunderstood, the ascension is integral to the gospel. In The Ascension of Christ, Patrick Schreiner argues that Jesus' work would be incomplete without his ascent to God's right hand. Not only a key moment in the Gospel story, Jesus' ascension was necessary for his present ministry in and through the church. Schreiner argues that Jesus' residence in heaven marks a turning point in his three-fold offices of prophet, priest, and king. As prophet, Jesus builds the church and its witness. As priest, he intercedes before the Father. As king, he rules over all. A full appreciation of the ascension is essential for understanding the Bible, Christian doctrine, and Christ's ongoing work in the world.

Considerado un texto clave en la historia del alpinismo, el ascenso a esta montaña de la Provenza francesa por parte del poeta Petrarca, en compañía de su hermano Gherardo, constituye un episodio nada frecuente en la época. Parece que tan extraño impulso de los hermanos tuvo por deseo imitar la ascensión de Filipo V de Macedonia al monte Hemo de Tesalia, una ascensión narrada por Tito Livio, con la excusa de contemplar los mares Adriático y Euxino. Petrarca da cuenta en esta carta de las emociones que le suscita la aventura y se deleita con la contemplación del paisaje, como podría hacerlo un montañero de nuestros días. Solo que lleva consigo las Confesiones de san Agustín y con ellas la tiesura entre cierto canon moral sobre la metáfora de elevación que sustrae de la propia montaña y el placer sublime y sensualque procura la experiencia de la escalada y la percepción estética de la naturaleza.
