The Gospel of Mark

The Gospel of Mark is commonly thought to be Mark's recording of the Apostle Peter's sermons. Did Mark get it right? Bible scholars believe that 91 percent of Mark's Gospel is included in Matthew and 53 percent in Luke's. Is this a bad thing? Absolutely not! Matthew and Luke were so confident that Mark's account was accurate they did not hesitate to use Mark as an important source. In this Study Guide, Dr. Mellichamp shows how Mark was uniquely qualified as a close associate of Peter to convert Peter's sermons into this vivid and lively account of the life and ministry of Jesus. Mellichamp provides detailed outlines of each of the chapters in the book and he poses numerous application questions which will help you understand the book either working on your own or with a small group.
