Sinopsis

This book provides Bible study material for preparing question-based lessons from the Gospel of Mark. These lessons are best suited for intermediate or advanced classes. Subheadings within each lesson include primary and secondary themes, scripture texts and class-discussion questions. A commentary is included to aid the teacher's exploration of the scripture texts, show how the discussion questions fit together and provide important background material. Many themes are addressed, but the predominate themes are the nature of God (self-giving love), God's grace and God's desire for each person to grow up into the full stature of Jesus. Preliminary chapters provide suggestions for teaching using the Socratic method and a brief overview of Mark's Gospel. “52 Lessons from the Gospel of Mark” includes lessons that cover the following themes (in no particular order): love, truth, messiahship, discipleship, the nature of human beings, repentance, transformation, compassion, miracles, healing, faith, the deity of Christ, the humanity of Christ, forgiveness, prayer, sin, righteousness, grace, law, covenants, salvation, family, relationships, spiritual fruit, the Holy Spirit, the Kingdom of God, fear, justice, cultural influence, evil, hypocrisy, self-righteousness, legalism, self-honesty, self-denial, money, worldliness, sharing the gospel, humility, shame, courage, non-violence, worship, sacrifice, authority, citizenship, eternal life, Jesus's return, decision, submission, atonement and resurrection. The book's lessons emphasize the Christian faith and its application to living in the 21st Century as a disciple of Jesus. The lessons are intended to be non-denominational and non-dogmatic.
