Studies in Mark

As those who frequent Pisteuomen are well aware, I have been doing a series on Mark’s Gospel account. Up to this point, I have posted 16 studies, which have spanned chapters 1 through 5 and some of chapter 6 (e.g. 6.1-29). I will continue writing these studies but in this post, I thought I would gather the links to each of them (as a sort of table-of-contents). These studies have generated some good discussion and have really challenged me; I hope that future posts will do even better. If you want to comment on any of the old studies, feel free to do that in the comment section of this post. For now, though, the first 16 studies are listed below, in the order in which they were posted:
