Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke trace the Gospel of Mark’s surprising answer to the mystery running through all creation: Christ in you, the hope of glory. The guys connect Jesus to the kings, prophets, priests, sacrifices, and promises of the Old Testament, showing how the Bible forms one continuous story fulfilled in him. They also examine why the disciples recognized Jesus’ power but struggled to accept a Messiah who would conquer through suffering. The cross ultimately reveals the true nature of God’s strength and the radically different life his kingdom offers.
