The Gospel of Mark: Tragedy and Mystery

Mark's Gospel ends abruptly. Why did the author choose to finish the book this way, and how might this ending inform how we see the gospel unfold: from the portrayal of the disciples to Jesus' journey to the cross to the very depiction of the Kingdom of God. Our explorations will uncover our own assumptions and encourage receptivity to new and possibly unnerving ways to understand the Gospel of Mark.
