Reviews"With his characteristic spiritual wisdom and learning, Rowan Williams provides a rich companion to the Gospel of Mark for the season of Lent. His vivid and accessible prose invites us into this strange, sparse Gospel, calling us to see God working in the world around us, subtly and slowly, from the very depth of being."--Jane Shaw, Dean for Religious Life and Professor of Religious Studies, Stanford University, "This fresh, new perspective on an ancient text gives us insight into the depth and wisdom of Mark as an ancient biography. Mark is not to be sidelined as the shortest of the gospels but should be relished as a deep, rich and enduring mystical resource."--The Very Reverend Katherine B. (Kate) Moorehead is the Dean of St. John's Episcopal Cathedral in Jacksonville, Florida, and author of several books, including Resurrecting Easter

SynopsisMeeting God in Mark explores the essential meaning and purpose of Mark's Gospel for beginners who may be curious about the Gospels and want to learn more, as well as for those who've read the Gospel many times before and want to see it in a fresh light. This beautifully written book by beloved Anglican Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury, is packed with illuminating spiritual insights, and the focus on the Passion narrative makes this ideal as a Lenten devotional or study resource. Each of the three chapters includes questions for reflection. The end of the book includes a reading guide, reflection, and prayer for each of the seven weeks of Lent.
