<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="font-size: large;">Burdick essentially journeys through the entire Gospel of Mark, gazing on certain passage through the lens of teaching. What he finds is pretty interesting. He sees in Jesus’ repetitive parables a model for driving points home—to deliver messages with a “tremendous whack” as Churchill would say. Burdick uses Peter’s denial of Christ to demonstrate the need for self-correction to teach young people how to overcome their own mistakes.</span></div>
