Preaching the Word - Mark: Jesus, Servant and Savior

Book Description:

The Gospel of Mark resounds with the dynamic power of the Lord Jesus Christ, a message that is desperately needed in an age of aggressive evil and apathetic faith. In what is perhaps the most dramatic and action-packed of the Synoptic Gospels, Mark's writing continues to inspire increased commitment to the Lord in the Church at large. His portrayal of Christ as the Servant-Savior takes on fresh relevance in these expositions by respected pastor and author R. Kent Hughes. With careful exegesis and instructive illustrations, Hughes draws many practical lessons for everyday living and ministry from the Biblical text. Written to help preachers and Bible teachers communicate God's Word more effectively, this engaging commentary unpacks the Gospel of Mark with clarity and passion.
