Awake, Alert, and Ready – By Rev. Myra Brown

When Jesus tells his disciples that one day the temple will be destroyed and not one stone will be left upon another they were shocked. So they came to Jesus privately with a question, when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and the end of the age? They wanted to know can our faith exist outside of the physical building of the temple. They weren’t sure it could, in fact they thought this could be the end of the age. When the building is gone, what is next? Is our faith dependent on the physical building that we gather in, or can it exist outside of these walls in a world which we are called to live?
