This in-depth inductive Bible study examines Mark’s record of
Christ’s life and ministry as well as the same events when
presented in the other Gospels. The study asks the student to
carefully observe in order to accurately interpret The Gospel
According to Mark, the good news of Jesus Christ. The twenty-two
week study looks for eternal principles to lead Christ’s followers
to a life of obedience and commitment. The study includes many
questions to bring personal application from Christ’s teaching
through Mark’s historical and biographical narrative. The lessons
also offer a reflection in Scripture in the study of the classical
spiritual disciplines to challenge the student to grow in their
faith as a mature disciple of Christ.
The participants can approach the
study in several different ways. One possibility is to complete the
“observation and application” portion alone, which would probably take no more
than one hour per week. Another option is to complete the rest of the lesson
taking approximately three hours of study each week. Class time will include a
discussion to review the lesson as well as time for fellowship in prayer.
