Second Sunday of Advent (December 4, 2011) Year B

Reading 1: Isaiah 40:1-5, 9-11; Reading 2: 2 Peter 3:8-14; Gospel: Mark 1:1-8;
How hard is it to admit when you are wrong? 
When do you consider a wrong also a sin?  How do understand the sense of sin? 
Are your experiences of the sacrament of Penance moments of reconciliation for you? 
Repent means to have a change of mind. Are there things that seem to be wrong now that did not seem so bad in the past? Or just the opposite - are there things that I thought were wrong in the past are not so bad now?  
Who are some of the people who have helped you change for the better?  
John's clothing was that of a prophet. How do your clothes express who you are?  
Having been baptized by water, how do you understand being baptized “by the Holy Spirit”? 
Water cleanses. Spirit gives life. How has Jesus Christ enriched your life?  What are you doing to prepare for the celebration of Jesus' birth?
