The Gospel of Mark
Taught by: Jesse Auwen and Chris Campbell
For men and women.
The ultimate purpose and theme of Mark is to present and defend Jesus’ universal call to discipleship. Fellowship with Jesus marks the heart of every disciple’s life – trusting Jesus, confessing Jesus, living in step with Jesus’ teaching, and being shaped by a relationship with Jesus is central to the Christian life. Join Jesse Auwen and Chris Campbell for a survey of the gospel of Mark and learn how Jesus’ life, ministry, and teaching shapes your life today.
