This one is for those who will be preaching this year. The Gospel for Year B (2012) is Mark. For some good background reading on the second gospel you might like to go here . While you're there, by all means look around.
This is the Working Preacher website that always offers some interesting insight into the lectionary scriptures for the week.
Our CPI pastors will be especially interested in the January 15 essay. Ask any one of them the special significance of the fig tree.
I realize there are many links in this particular post, but all of them will bring you to this excellent resource for you "working preachers" reading What's the Good Word today.
