HIS NAME
IS JESUS
Have you
ever watched
a masterful
attorney in
the
courtroom?
Often he or
she will
parade
before the a
number of
witnesses,
all of whom
credibly
describe the
same event
from
different
perspectives
and with
varying
detail. This
is how
Godchose to
have “Jesus’
biographies”
penned by
Matthew,
Mark, Luke,
and John.
Each
describes
life and
ministry of
Jesus Christ
from
different
angles. This
class will
be “diving
deep” into
the Gospel
of Mark.
Mark
interprets
the life of
Jesus
specifically
to the
Gentiles and
Romans,
using
imagery
throughout.
Bring your
Bibles and a
readiness to
learn.
Facilitated
by Pastor
Ruffin.
Class in
Fellowship

Grasping
the

the major

the Hebrew
tradition,
the Torah.
