In this concise, Christ-centered overview of the Gospel of Mark, we trace the “beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God” (Mark 1:1) and see why Mark presents Jesus as the triumphant Suffering Servant—One who did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life “a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45).
You’ll get the big-picture purpose, audience, and driving themes of Mark’s fast-paced narrative (action, urgency, discipleship, the Kingdom of God, and the central question: Who is Jesus?), along with a simple outline that helps you read Mark with clarity and structure—especially as the Gospel presses us toward a decision about Jesus and a willingness to follow Him in the way of the cross (Mark 8:34–35).
