This book is intended for Christian men who want to grow in their faith by understanding, knowing, and applying God's Word to their daily lives. It is a fast-paced but solid exposition of the Gospel of Mark.. Mark writes in a no-frills, "just the facts" manner. He records eighteen miracles that Jesus performed--casting out evil spirits, healings, raising the dead, walking on water, feeding the five thousand and the four thousand, calming the storm, and of course, the final and most significant miracle is his resurrection. These all showed that Jesus was indeed the Messiah, the Son of God. And that's good news because if he is truly the Messiah and the Son of God, his death and resurrection were effective to provide forgiveness and eternal salvation to those who believe in him.This book is not written by a seminary professor, pastor, or full-time Christian worker. It is written by a businessman to businessmen as a fellow traveler, who has spent a lifetime immersed in the hurly-burly of the business world.Each chapter can be read in about ten minutes.
