December 5: Study and Meditations on this Sunday's Scripture Readings

To help us prepare for this coming Sunday, here are the readings and reflections for this coming Sunday's Scripture readings. This Sunday is the 2nd Sunday of Advent, Cycle A. In the Gospel Reading, John the Baptist appears in the Judean wilderness to prepare the way of the Lord.

Here are the Scripture readings from the U.S. Catholic bishops website.

My own weekly study can be found here under "Current Study."

Here are three audio reflections on the readings by Sister Ann Shields, Dr. Scott Hahn and Fr. Robert Barron.

Here are a trio of Catholic Bible study podcasts on the Gospel Reading, each about an hour long:

--Sunday Gospel Scripture Study
--Sisters of the Sorrowful Mother
--St. Martha's Adult Faith Formation

The Navarre Bible Commentary for each reading can be viewed here.

Further study resources for the Readings: St. Charles Borromeo Bible Study can be found here, and Catholic Matters can be found here.

I have also started a new discussion thread for this Sunday's readings over at the Catholic Answers forums, found here which will be updated through the week-end.
.
Please consider supporting those who provide these free resources. Discussion, questions and charitable comments are always welcome. Have a blessed week!
