Invitation from Pastor Ralph: We are going to walk through the Gospel of Mark urgently but leisurely. The urgency comes from Mark: he tends to pick you up and carry you along through the life of Jesus. This is important stuff. Indeed, this is the most important news ever! Leisurely comes from our pace: in most cases, a few verses each day. It is our hope and prayer that together the Spirit might bless us and grow us up into our salvation.
