Holy Disruption: Discovering Advent In The Gospel Of Mark

Where's the baby? The Gospel of Mark doesn't have a nativity story-so where's the Advent message? It's in every aspect of Jesus' life, to his death and beyond. The Incarnation-God come to earth in human form to be baptized, teach, heal, eat, and die-is what we celebrate at Christmas, and Mark shows us just how radical and celebration-worthy it is! Holy Disruption presents a fresh understanding of the holiness of Christmas grounded, not in a conventional cozy Christmas message, but through Mark's disquieting gospel which invites its readers to experience God's disruptive but transformative love for us and our world.
