Mark begins with the announcement that something new is coming. The work of God in human history changes with the arrival of Jesus of Nazareth. In Mark's introduction the messenger that Isaiah prophesied promotes the expectation of the Kingdom of God, Jesus is prepared for the ministry of the Kingdom, and then He comes from this preparation with the invitation for all to enter the kingdom through repentance and faith. Listen this week to hear how God's kingdom is introduced by Mark and how God's Word calls us to respond.
