Are you in the Wellington region? Keen for a day of scripture and worship? Join us for an interactive seminar with Dr Jonathan Robinson as we plunge deeply into the first half of Mark’s Gospel, where Jesus is presented as the One who is stronger. Mark’s Gospel shows us that Jesus is the One more powerful than John the Baptist (1:7), the One more powerful than Satan (3:27), the One more powerful than the wind and the waves (4:41). We will engage this Gospel portrait of Jesus on a number of levels. We will look at historical and cultural circumstances, which will help us gain a more accurate view of the text. We will examine Mark’s use of the Hebrew Scriptures and how that adds to his portrait of Jesus. We will consider what it meant for Mark and what it means for us to be a disciple of such a Rabbi. And through it all, we will take time to worship the One who is stronger.
9.30AM-4.00pm, Sat 27 May 2023, at Upper Hutt Baptist, 1 Milton St Upper Hutt
$50 per person, with morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea provided.
