Jesus is Still Speaking Through the Gospel of Mark

Jesus is Still Speaking Through the Gospel of Mark

The title of this book is a play on the United Church of Christâ€™s â€œGod Is Still Speakingâ€ marketing campaign. I have sifted through two decades of sermon writing, which were primarily focused on the Gospels, to see how Markâ€™s Gospel portrays the still speaking voice of Jesus. The essays in this book work with some of Jesusâ€™ most provocative words as related through the pen of Mark. But what meaning do these words carry in our world today? Are they practical and relevant for us? Is Jesus still speaking to us â€¦ through the Gospel of Mark?
