Mark

David Schnasa Jacobsen takes a broad thematic approach to Marks Gospel, while at the same time giving exegetical and homiletical insights about individual pericopes in their narrative context. By helping preachers and students make connections between the various lections from Mark throughout Year B in their sermons and studies, they and their parishioners will have a deeper appreciation of Marks unique interpretation of the Christ Event and how that influences their approach to living the Christian faith in todays world.
