In this study Mr. Smith begins a Bible Study series on the book of Mark. From Mark chapter 1 we see that Mark places an emphasis on what Jesus does and does not go into as deep into the details of what he said as the other gospel writers do. In chapter 1 Mark covers some of the healings and casting out of demons in Jesus' early ministry and how Jesus had to avoid staying too long in one place so that the Jews would not try to kill him before the appointed time.
