Part One: Overview
About the Gospel of Mark:
St. Marks Gospel is a statement against Rome. This Gospel proclaims the Good News of Jesus Christ in a time when all good news was related to Rome and its Emperor. This is the good news about God and the Anointed One Jesus Christ. This would have gone against all social norms of the time. Would you go against your society and cultural norms to follow Christ? Join Fr. Bill as he explores these topics and many others in this study of the Gospel of St. Mark.
