Dear Friends,
For three and a half years, Jesus continually taught and preached. He performed wonders and drew people to him. Obviously, these gospels are not a daily diary of his entire ministry. They are not a transcript of his every word. Think of them as a highlight reel, capturing the essence of the Good News, the platform of the New Covenant, the record of our redemption. Yet with so much ground to cover in sixteen chapters, why does Mark include this account of Christ’s rejection by friends and neighbors? What is Jesus telling us? What should we learn from this gospel?
