Beginning on Sunday, July 25, 2010 @8:30am – The Servant of God

A study of the Gospel of Mark

The first nine chapters of Mark’s gospel record the early ministry of Jesus in and surrounding the area of Galilee. Mark’s gospel does not record for us his birth nor his childhood. It is in the other gospel records that we read the Christmas story and his teaching at the temple when he turned age twelve. 

In a prior series of lessons, we looked at those first nine chapters of Mark’s gospel leading up to his final travel to Jerusalem, where the events of Passion week takes up most of the second half of his gospel record. 

Our current series of lessons are concentrated on that final sojourn of Jesus, God with us, in his redemptive work. This is what he came into the world to accomplish. Much of modern church teaching concentrate on the activities of Jesus prior to that final passion week, placing more emphasis on his moral teachings much to the neglect of the more controversial aspects of his atonement for the sins of man and his resurrection. It is Jesus’ closing acts that gives the christian hope that is further outlined in the New Testament writings that follow the gospel records.

• Lesson #1, 7/25/10 “On the Way to Jerusalem”
• Lesson #2, 8/01/10 “His Arrival”
• Lesson #3, 8/08/10 “His Teaching”
• Lesson #4, 8/15/10 “His Prophecy”
• Lesson #5, 8/22/10 “His Preparation”
• Lesson #6, 8/29/10 “His Suffering”; Mark 15
• Lesson #7, 9/05/10 “His Departure”; Mark 16
