The author contends that the best way to know someone is to spend time with him, hear what he says, and listen to what others say about him. This is what happens in the book. With clear illustrations and profound insights, the author makes the teaching of Mark relevant to our lives today. Drawn from the Gospel of Mark, the chapters are ideal for group or individual Bible study. Each deals with one person who met Jesus or one lesson that Jesus taught, and then concludes with study questions.
