We should always get excited when we read the Gospels. We have no way to delve deeply into the mind of Jesus except by obtaining a knowledge of the Gospel accounts. These records of our Lord's life are a powerful means of gaining new light and even delight over newfound spiritual knowledge. Mark presents Jesus as a lowly servant, as a man of action more than a man of words. Consequently, the doings of Jesus, not His teaching, dominate this record of Jesus' life and ministry. A careful study of the Gospel according to Mark will change your life and that of others. Its brevity and brilliant presentation appeal to many in our hectic world. The style of writing couples realism with simplicity. In the straightforward fashion of this Gospel, the reader becomes almost an eyewitness. The messages found in this account of our Lord's life can pierce our hearts with the passion to live godly lives and share the good news with others.
