The Pressing Jesus Mark

Jesus was never static or passive. He was always pressing in His words and actions, nowhere perhaps more openly among the gospels than in Mark which is almost a steady stream of activity on Jesus’ part. If this had been an old fashioned photograph dependent on the subjects standing perfectly still for a long time, all we would have seen of Jesus would have been a blur. The entries here cover isolated passages on a completely unprogrammed basis. They are dated. You will note that the earlier ones cover larger portions of scripture in less depth. Here you are reading through thoughts on paper. They are not intended as a complete scholarly commentary, and they certainly do not have Greek and historical documentation, but they are genuine insights from Jesus and His words. Lurking inside all of these, there is something to help with understanding Jesus and living this life for Him. Originally entries from all four gospels were in a single volume called, The Pointed Jesus, but due to increasing entries and the size limitations of this kind of printing, I’ve had to divide them up into four volumes covering entries from each gospel separately.
