Course Description

Mark’s Gospel – probably the earliest written account of the life of Jesus – is shortest and sharpest of the gospels. Vivid and fast-paced as a story; it is mysterious and challenging as a summons.

Through an exegetical study of Mark, we will experience how the Gospel grabs readers by the collar and confronts them with the big question “What does it mean to follow this Jesus?”; and appropriate the answers for our own Spiritual Formation and Discipleship.
