About this episode
This episode discusses the beginning of Christ's official ministry and the calling of his first disciples as described in the Gospel of Mark.
Our passage this morning takes us back to the very beginning of Christ’s official ministry on earth. Just to recap briefly, since it has been a minute since we have been in Mark, the story in Mark picks up in chapter 1, verse 1, with John the Baptist’s ministry, and then it quickly progresses through Jesus’s baptism and his temptation in the wilderness, and then today into the beginning of his ministry and the calling of the first disciples.
