A Quiet Day led by Paula Gooder

The Beginning of the Good News: Exploring Mark's Gospel

Over the years Mark's Gospel has been assumed to be the least theological of all the gospels – just telling the story of Jesus but little more than that. When you look carefully at Mark, however, it becomes clear that its message is bound up with how the story is told. During this reflective study day, we will be exploring Mark's key messages and how Mark's storytelling helps us to understand them.
