Cover of Phil Moore: Straight to the Heart of Mark (ePUB)

The ancient writers tell us that Mark wrote down the words of Peter as he described what it was like to follow Jesus around Galilee and Judea. That’s why Mark’s gospel is so fast-paced and action-packed. He wants us to experience the same highs and lows as Peter in his journey of discovery. Through Mark’s gospel, we are able to discover Jesus for ourselves. Mark invites us to step into the story.

God inspired the Bible for a reason. He wants you read it and let it change your life. If you are willing to take this challenge seriously, then you will love Phil Moore’s devotional commentaries. Their bite-sized chapters are punchy and relevant, yet crammed with fascinating scholarship. Welcome to a new way of reading the Bible. Welcome to the Straight to the Heart series.
