Questions for reflection on Mark 13:24-37:

1. What emotions do you feel when you think about the second coming of Jesus?
2. We are reminded to “keep alert/awake” (13:33, 35, 37). What does he mean? How do you personally “keep alert”?
3. We prepare for Christmas season by setting up lights and decorations, but what does it mean to prepare for the coming of Christ?
