Mark starts his biography of Jesus with the startling claim that Jesus is the Son of God. What unfolds is a compelling account of a remarkable life that seems to back up that claim at every point. Mark asks us three big questions:
1. Who is Jesus
2. Why did he come?
3. What does he call us to do?
He tells us that our answers to those questions are, literally, a matter of life and death.
