    Contributed by Joseph Neil Adams on Feb 22, 2008
    based on 14 ratings
     | 7,469 views

    Mark’s original ending has been seen as controversial yet it is so powerful & real & full of challenge.

    The Easter resurrection story in Mark offers us a different slant in a way on old story. It offers us an ending where the feeling is not spontaneous joy & praise, but fear & confusion & doubt. It is a ending that has troubled the Church for generations, indeed it made the people who put together ...read more
