The Gospel According to Mark - Answer Guide

The shortest of the four gospels, Mark is the earliest account of Jesus' life. With no mention of Jesus' infancy, Mark begins with Jesus' baptism in the Jordan by John and climaxes with the announcement of his resurrection to the women at the tomb. Mark asks everyone to answer Jesus' question, 'Who do you say that I am?' and challenges believers in every generation to accept the harsh reality of the cross. Mark, along with Matthew and Luke, is one of the synoptic gospels. It is the primary gospel of year 'B' in the Catholic Church's liturgical cycle.Weekly Sessions Introductory Session Lesson 1 - Mark 1 Lesson 2 - Mark 2-3 Lesson 3 - Mark 4-5 Lesson 4 - Mark 6-7 Lesson 5 - Mark 8:1-9:32 Lesson 6 - Mark 9:33-10:52 Lesson 7 - Mark 11-12 Lesson 8 - Mark 13-14 Lesson 9 - Mark 15-16
