About this title

Synopsis

The mystery Mark puts before us must be broken open and solved, for his gospel proclaims the very reality of god at work in our lives. Michael Raschko himself is a companion as he takes the reader on an adventure through the life and times of Jesus as seen through the eyes of Mark. Each chapter explores a section of Mark's gospel and focuses on these three areas. - The world of the Text: an examination of the context in which this gospel was written; - Reflections in Front of the text: consideration of how our world can be different if we confront the message of the gospel; - Key Points for Preaching: contextual ways to convey this message to others. The Key themes of Mark are developed and explored in light of contemporary theology, with an emphasis on application to our lives today. Raschko considers the strategy and structures Mark uses to convey his message, illustrating he intricacies of Mark in simple terms. Author Michael Raschko takes the reader on an adventure through the life and times of Jesus as seen through the eyes of Mark.

A Companion to the Gospel of Mark is a valuable resource for preachers and teachers, for Scripture study groups and classes, and for anyone interested in combing the secrets of Mark's gospel.
