The Gospel of Mark is action-packed and vividly records the miracles and works of Jesus Christ. It is relatively short, is believed to be the first and earliest gospel written, and it records the acts and achievements of Jesus as the Christ, our Lord and Saviour. Though the work itself does not name an author, Church history unanimously points to John Mark. Mark is mentioned ten times
in the New Testament. His Hebrew name was John, and his Roman name was Mark. Mark is recorded as a cousin of Barnabas who was a famous ministry partner of Paul. In Acts 12:12, we’re told that Mark’s widowed mother Mary was close to Peter. For that reason and others, it is believed that Peter was a main source of information for Mark’s Gospel. With this background information in mind, let’s embark on a study of this telling of Jesus’ ministry on earth that so
clearly shook the culture.
We are a family-run international ministry with television, print and online programs designed to guide you through the Bible in one year.
From social issues and apologetics to theology, history and science, our mission is to educate, edify and encourage the believer to actively engage with God’s Word in all ways.
