Mark: A 40-Day Bible Study (Planted in the Word)
A 40-Day Bible Study on Mark
“Who do you say that I am?” —Mark 8:29
Jesus asked his disciples this question, and no question is more important. The Gospel of Mark answers by presenting Jesus as the King who suffered and gave his life for our salvation and invited us to take up our cross and follow him.
Mark: A 40-Day Bible Study is meditative, gospel-centered, practical, and prayerful. Over forty days, you will:
- Read and reflect on Mark’s Gospel
- Meditate on Jesus and the good news
- Pray through the Gospel
- Apply God’s word to your life
Planted in the Word
Bible studies for individuals or small groups.
Each volume provides forty days of guided Bible study written by respected scholars for everyday Christians. Short enough to read in 15 minutes or less, each day includes:
- Reading and meditation on Scripture
- Reflection on how the text points to Christ
- Application of God’s word to our lives
- Praying for God’s help
- Suggestions for further study or discussion
Each volume includes a reading plan for group study.
Praise for the Planted in the Word Series
I cannot think of a greater gift to the church than a biblically rooted devotional series, which spans the entire New Testament. The Planted in the Word series will nourish the faith of Christians in a profound way for many years to come.
—R. Albert Mohler, president, The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Kentucky
“This daily devotional is something I’ve longed for. It is expositional, theological, and practical as it walks verse by verse through a book of the Bible in just 40 days. With such an outstanding stable of contributors, it is certain to become widely used in the days to come.
—Daniel L. Akin, president, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, North Carolina
I’m excited to place these valuable tools in the hands of our church members, knowing they will be well-equipped to grow in their faith.
—Jason Dees, senior pastor, Christ Covenant, Atlanta
