Of course you should read the bible. I recommend a concordia self study bible, it has lots of nice notes and parallel passages and etc.
Matthew 24:3-51 talks about the end times. There's also sections in Revelation that talks about the mark of the beast and etc, but be careful not to try to create religious truths like rapture out of the book. It is a worthwhile and fun read though.
There's wars and rumors of wars, earthquakes and famines, the antichrist, massive falling away from faith. And as MA already stated, kingdoms against kingdoms.
Some of the things we are possibly waiting for is:
Everyone in the world will hear the gospel preached.
Some super anti-christ (?)
The stuff in revelations, although, you can't be too sure what the "beast" and its mark is.

Can't remember all of those signs right off the top of my head, but i do know that at least 80% of them are happening right now.
O yea, there is one that i remember. The bible says that when the end comes, nations will rise against nations and kingdoms against kingdoms. All of that is happening in the middle East.

80% (or whatever number you perfer) have been happening for like, ever.
