Advent means arrival. It is a time when one thinks in a special way about the coming of the Lord. But while for most people it's only about the baby in the manger, we know that Jesus will come again to take up his reign.

We live in a time of preparation for this all-changing event. Are we really ready for it? Sigrid looks with you at one of Jesus' best-known parables, the matter of the ten virgins. It's about light in the darkness, the prophetic call that the bridegroom is coming, the seriousness of the hour, and the call to all of us to truly make ourselves ready.

As the bridegroom was delayed, they all (!) became drowsy and slept.
Matthew 25:5
