Advent Begins – This week we light the first candle of Advent. The Gospel begins the season with signs of the end times. Jesus reminds us to keep watch because we don’t know when it will come. Keeping watch isn’t a fearful response but excited anticipation. Like the way we yearn to meet the child born in Bethlehem on Christmas morn, we are called to prepare and watch for Christ to come again with the same longing expectations. Keep watch! Pastor Steve preaches on Mark 13:24-37
