Mark as Story has proved to be a useful resource for laypersons, students, and clergy for fifteen years. It introduces the Gospel of Mark as a unified composition, laying bare the narrative thread as well as the basic motifs. It is marked throughout by clarity, freshness, and a lively style.

"The first edition of Mark as Story was a groundbreaking text showing teachers and students how to read Mark as a narrative. The second edition, which adds Joanna Dewey to the authorial team, makes a good book even better. Substantial revisions improve and update the text. Insights from recent scholarship are incorporated while maintaining the focus on Mark as story. An Afterword on the ethics of reading has been added. Of special note for classroom use is their English translation of Mark. It allows those who do not read Greek to gain a sense of the style of the original. Two new appendices with exercises for students are also valuable." ---Janice Capel Anderson University of Idaho
"In paying meticulous attention to Mark's compositional devices and rhetorical effects, [the authors] have taken a major step toward comprehending the Gospel as an artistic creation. This highly readable book significantly enhances our enjoyment of the Gospel as story." ---Werner H. Kelber Rice University
