Advent Meditations 2023: December 5 – Mk 13:33-37

Posted 5 December 2023

For today’s installment of our Advent Meditation series, our brother Ted Kennedy provides commentary on Mk 13:33-37. Take a listen or click here to download.

Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come. It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. Therefore stay awake-for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or in the morning- lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.” Mk 13:33-37

Ted is a lifelong brother who grew up in the Ann Arbor area and has spent much of his working life in the for-profit world. He is one of our ‘monks in the marketplace’ who help support our life and outreach. He founded Servant Systems, the company that several of our brothers still work for, and he worked for many years in the franchise industry as the CFO and CIO of Service Brands. He has now scaled back his for-profit work to half time, and serves as the Regional Controller for our North American Region with his other half time. One of his hobbies is software development, and he worked with JP Fahd from our European and Middle East Region to write our own accounting software. He still likes making improvements to the system whenever he gets a chance.
