Beginning the New Year with Mark
There is a grand convergence this year between the Revised Common Lectionary and the Narrative Lectionary. Both lectionaries are focused on the Gospel of Mark.
I plan to make a video each week that follows the Narrative lectionary schedule and fills in the gaps. The playlist below contains the first two videos. Feel free to use these videos for your own study, preaching, and teaching. Download the Mark Mega Pack and create your own teaching tools for Mark to use within your context. Enjoy!
