On February 1 we’ll begin an eight-week examination of The Gospel of Mark looking for answers to three questions:
- Who was Jesus?
- Why did he come?
- What does it mean to follow him?
You won’t be asked to read aloud, to pray or to sing. You don’t need to know anything about the Bible and you can ask any question you want. There’s no cost for the course and if you need a Bible we’ll provide one for you. If you want more information or if you’d like to sign up for the course, please speak with Pastor Brent (403-556-3219).
