Description

Mark begins with a voice shouting in the wilderness and a sky torn open, and then everything happens immediately: nets dropped on the shore, a fever gone, a leper touched, a storm hushed, a girl told to get up and given something to eat. His friends misunderstand, argue, fall asleep, and run. And it ends at an empty tomb, with a message for the disciples—and Peter—and three women too frightened to say a word.

This book walks through it in thirty-six short poems, in four parts. Each poem sits beside a picture and under a single line of Scripture. The pictures stay with the things the story touches—a net left on the shore, a cushion in a boat, a broken jar, a linen cloth on a garden path—and leave the faces to your imagination.
