WCS Mark: A Ransom for Many

Based on sermons preached at Kensington Baptist Church, Bristol, Steve Wilmshurst has increasingly, and beyond his expectations, been drawn in by the sheer power of Mark’s story-telling. He comments that, “Mark’s gospel focuses on the Lord Jesus as the crucified Christ; as his followers we are called to take up our cross and follow him who gave his life as a ransom for many. If this book encourages you in this path of discipleship, it will have achieved its purpose.”

“Wilmshurst has written a commentary with real substance that is also great fun to read. Well-known moments in Mark’s gospel are freshly lit up by contemporary illustrations, penetrating application and a keen sense of how each moment fits into Mark’s overall shape and purpose.”

“This clear, lively, readable and accessible study is the fruit of sound scholarship… I warmly commend it.”
