Everyone is welcome to a discussion of the Gospel of Mark and The Last Week: What the Gospels Really Teach About Jesus's Final Days in Jerusalem by John Dominic Crossan and Marcus Borg. This timely book depicts “Jesus giving up his life to protest power without justice and to condemn the rich who lack concern for the poor. In this vein, at the end of the week Jesus marches up Calvary, offering himself as a model for others to do the same when they are confronted by similar issues. Informed, challenged, and inspired, we not only meet the historical Jesus, but meet a new Jesus who engages us and invites us to follow him.”
