Questions for reflection on the readings for Advent 1:
  1. If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
  2. What does longing for God feel like? How would you explain it to someone?
  3. What emotions arise when you think about the Second Coming of Christ?
  4. How would you prepare yourself if you knew the Second Coming was soon? How might that help you prepare yourself for this Advent?
