Sessions

"The beginning of the good news of Jesus Christ, the Son of God" (NRSV)

 

Thus Mark the evangelist begins the first gospel, the first written witness to the good news of the life and death of Jesus.

We studied the Gospel of Mark in four sessions on Sundays from November 23, 2008 to December 21, 2008, based on The Gospel of Mark (Interpreting Biblical Texts), by Dr. Donald H. Juel. Mark is the primary gospel of the new Lectionary year that began in Advent 2008.

The sessions were led by Linda Monyak.
