I Know a Man Who Visited Heaven Part 2

When God uses someone in your life, there can be that tendency within us to want to put them on some sort of pedestal. Because you’re thankful. Or let’s say the Lord is really using you and blessing your life… and people are thanking and praising you left and right. About that time you’re tempted to think of yourself more highly than you ought to. Today on Abounding Grace we’ll be encouraged to adopt a perspective modeled for us by the apostle Paul. He was humble, and just saw himself as a servant. He certainly didn’t want to draw attention to himself or receive the glory for what God did in and through his life. Pastor Ed Taylor opens Second Corinthians twelve, and urges us to live with that mindset.

About Pastor Ed Taylor

Pastor Ed Taylor serves as the lead pastor of Calvary Church in Aurora, Colorado, where he and his family have had the joy of serving since December 1999. Originally from Southern California, Ed came to faith in Jesus after a season of rebellious living and was discipled through the ministry of Calvary Chapel Downey.

Ed and his wife, Marie, have been married since 1989 and have three children. In 2013, their eldest son, Eddie, went home to be with the Lord. A loss that deeply shapes Ed’s heart for ministry to people who are hurting. They are proud grandparents to Eddie’s son, Levi, and a brand-new addition to their family arrived in May of 2026: Joshua’s son, Eddie.

Known for his transparent, real-life approach to teaching, Pastor Ed is passionate about helping people from every walk of life find hope and healing in Jesus. He teaches the Bible verse by verse, consistently pointing people to the grace of God and the sufficiency of Christ for all of life’s struggles. His heart is to encourage and equip believers, always reminding them: “The best is yet to come.”
