Official synopsis Publisher
Lectio Divina, Latin for divine reading, is a series of Bible studies that calls Christians to slow down, read Scripture, meditate on it, and prayerfully respond as they “listen to God” through His Word. The gospel of Mark was written while there were still living eye witnesses to the life and ministry of Jesus who could corroborate the amazing events. Mark relates rapid action and uses minimal dialogue to chronicle the deeds of the servant-leader Jesus Christ. The writing isn’t flowery, and it doesn’t meander. The key to understanding the picture of Jesus shown in Mark’s gospel may be found in Jesus’ own declaration, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” (Mark 10:45)
