Be Ready | Week 3

March 8, 2026

Book: Mark

Campus: Riverview

Scripture: Mark 13:1-37

As Jesus leaves the temple during Passover week, his disciples are amazed by the massive, gold covered building towering over Jerusalem. But instead of admiring it, Jesus makes a shocking prediction in Mark 13 that the temple will one day be destroyed. That moment launches one of his most talked about teachings about the end times and his second coming. Rather than feeding curiosity about when everything will happen, Jesus shifts the focus to how his followers should live right now. He warns them to stay alert, avoid false teachers, and remain faithful in a broken world. Jesus makes it clear that he is coming back, and that promise should shape how we live today by staying ready and sharing the hope of Jesus with others.
