Introducing The Gospel According To Mark 1-8:21

Mark wrote “the beginning of the Gospel” for Christians who thought it was the end. For that he told them a story of another time when Jesus’ disciples thought it was end but turned out to be the beginning. That is why the passion – resurrection of Jesus dominates the Gospel according to Mark. Using rhetorical and literary analysis, Father LaVerdiere introduces Mark’s story as the beginning of the Gospel as we enter a new millennium.
