The earliest of the four Gospels, the book portrays Jesus as an enigmatic figure, struggling with enemies, his inner and external demons, and with his devoted but disconcerted disciples. Unlike other gospels, his parables are obscure, to be explained secretly to his followers. With an introduction by Nick Cave

Book Description
The author contends that the best way to know someone is to spend time with him, hear what he says, and listen to what others say about him. This is what happens in the book. With clear illustrations and profound insights, the author makes the teaching of Mark relevant to our lives today. Drawn from the Gospel of Mark, the chapters are ideal for group or individual Bible study. Each deals with one person who met Jesus or one lesson that Jesus taught, and then concludes with study questions.

Book Description
Jesus Revealed reintroduces readers to the true Son of God, helping them see him with clear vision, so that they can love him more fully and follow him more completely Readers will be surprised and delighted as they get to know the Jesus whose face is clearly revealed through the titles God gave him and the names used for him by his earliest followers. A sense of comfortable familiarity with the Savior can cloud people’s vision–and even prevent them from drawing closer to Jesus as he really is. His titles and descriptions are heard so often that it’s easy to miss the impact of their true meaning. Even the name Jesus is so well known that it has lost much of its power in believers’ lives. In these pages, readers will encounter a Jesus who surprises and unsettles, who comforts and empowers, in astonishingly authentic ways. Each chapter focuses on one aspect of Jesus’ identity–such as Rabbi, Son of Man, Light of the World. As pastor and scholar Mark Roberts explores what’s behind each of these titles, he brings insight into the theological and historical meanings, and then relates them to life today. Readers will travel back to first-century Palestine, meet the God-man we know as Jesus, and experience a soul-changing encounter with him. Because to know him is to love him.

Book Description
"Jesus was more than simply a kindly fellow wandering around the hills of Galilee. He is the image of the unseen God."--From Chapter Two What do you think of Jesus? Do you think of him at all? Maybe you're too busy or you've lost interest or you've betrayed his friendship. Maybe you think there's nothing more to discover or maybe you think there is but don't know where to start. George Martin offers some good news: It's never too late to get to know Jesus. Jesus is near to you and passionately concerned about your well-being. In these short, lively reflections, Martin explores Scripture to reveal how Jesus demonstrates his mercy, comfort, strength and forgiveness, and how, time and again, he leads us out of our anxieties into his steadfast presence.
