Marking Time by Nick Baines
If you are thinking of doing some extra Bible study, prayer and reflection during Lent and you are not sure what to do then Nick Baines’ book looking at the Gospel of Mark is one to consider. The book has 47 reflections for Lent, Holy Week and Easter. Each day consists of a passage from Mark, some thoughts from the author and a closing prayer. On each Saturday there are some personal reflections and also some questions for group discussion.
The studies are divided into seven sections: Beginnings, Callings, Healings, Teachings, Happenings, Friends and Enemies and finally Endings and Beginnings as you journey through Mark’s Gospel. I’ve used this book myself and would recommend that you consider it if you have not yet decided what to read during Lent.
