The Gospel of Mark (Sunday School Class)

Discover the Good News in the Bible’s earliest Gospel

Walk through the Bible’s earliest source for the life of Jesus with scholar Amy-Jill Levine as she examines John the Baptizer, the Little Apocalypse, the Transfiguration, and several of Jesus’s most notable stories and parables. The Good News of the gospel message comes alive in this book as readers see Jesus as divine and human, powerful and weak, approachable yet mysterious. The book features an in-depth study of select passages and illuminates the Gospel in its historical context and as a source for the other gospels.[1]

Join Pastor Andrew as his Sunday School class reads and discusses The Gospel of Mark: a beginners’ guide to the Good News. Participants should pick up a copy of Amy-Jill Levine’s The Gospel of Mark. If you would like the church to order a copy of the book for you, please contact the church office. The cost of the book is $14.00. If the cost of the book will be a problem, please talk to Pastor Andrew. If you would like to order through the church, please let us know by Sunday, August 25^th.
