Most Christians are familiar with the story told in Mark's gospel,
from the fishermen leaving their nets, to the miracle of the loaves
and fishes, to the political rumblings and the crucifixion. But no
one knows who Mark really was or why this gospel was written or why
it's charged with such a sense of immediacy. For noted Jesus
scholar Marcus Borg, reading Mark is like meeting Jesus again for
the first time. Individual readers and parish study groups will
learn about this earliest gospel from the perspective of an
important Anglican theologian.
Conversations with Scripture is the umbrella title of the
Anglican Association of Biblical Scholars Study Series. Written in
accessible language and sensitive to those who have little or no
experience in reading the Bible, each book in the series focuses on
exploring the historical and critical background, plus modern
application of the texts. Other books in the series focus on the
Gospel of John, Revelation, the Law, the Parables, and 2
Isaiah.
