What happens in the wilderness…

Mark 1.1-8

Mark introduces his story of the life of Jesus as ‘good news’. But before getting to the content of that good news, he presents John, a messenger sent to prepare the way, who baptizes people in the wilderness.

This week's resources explore: how Mark introduces the good news of Jesus.
