Meeting Jesus in Mark

16 days~7 min/day

Sixteen days, one chapter at a time, through the shortest and fastest Gospel. Start here if you've never read the Bible.

Mark moves. The word "immediately" appears more than forty times, and the whole thing can be read aloud in about ninety minutes. It is the best possible introduction to who Jesus actually was.

The schedule

A sample: 8 days written out of 16. Whichever day you are actually on, the passage for it is on the daily reading page.

  1. Day 1

    Notice how fast it starts. No genealogy, no nativity: straight in.

  2. Day 2

    Mark 2

  3. Day 3

    Mark 3

  4. Day 4

    Mark 4

  5. Day 5

  6. Day 6

    Mark 6

  7. Day 7

  8. Day 8

    The hinge of the whole book: "Who do you say that I am?"
