Luke 21:8

"They asked him, “Teacher, so when will these things be? What is the sign that these things are about to happen?”"

Key Reflection

This question reveals the disciples' eagerness for immediate answers and their lack of spiritual preparedness. By seeking signs and timing, they missed the deeper, present-centered teaching Jesus was offering about remaining vigilant and faithful in the face of impending events.
