The Gospel of Mark

The Voice in the Wilderness

The Gospel of Mark is often overlooked because Matthew, Luke, and John have more content and details. However, this is unfortunate, as Matthew and Luke likely patterned their gospels after Mark’s (Mark is the first gospel written and passed along). In Mark, we have the essentials of following Jesus in a wild world. It explores what discipleship looks like in the face of disruption and suffering and how Jesus leads the way. Mark teaches about who Jesus is while showing how he is with us every step of the way in the wilderness of a world in chaos. The basics of discipleship are found in Mark.
