often hope - even expect- their faith will make a radical difference to
the way they think and behave. But the truth is that many of us struggle
to live up to the very high standards we set ourselves. And when expectations
are not fulfilled, disillusionment and frustration can quickly undermine
the assurance Christ longs to be ours.

- Mark's
Gospel offers the most human potrait of Jesus. Like any human being, Jesus
becomes tired and hungry. He feels a wide range of human emotions including
anger, wonder, compassion, indignation and love. Jesdoes not know everything
and his power is sometimes limited. Matthew and Luke- and especially John-
give us a more exalted picture of Jesus. Yet Mark, is aware that Jesus
while being fully human, has a unique relationship with God. The most
important title given to Jesus in Mark's gospel is 'Son of God'. The paradox
of Mark's portrayal of Jesus is that at the very moment when Jesus shares
most fully in the weakness of the human condition, on the cross, he reveals
himself most powerfully as 'Son of God@.

What
Was Mark At ?
- The
Gospel of Mark a Commentary
- Wilfrid
Harrington OP

- Like
all Gospels, Mark was addressed top a specific community with the needs
of the community firmly in mind. Mark's main concern is the abiding Christian
concern: the centrality of the Cross. Jesus of Nazareth is indeed Messiah-
but a crucified Messiah. Mark's theology is a theology of the cross and
Mark's Jesus is the most human in the gospels.

December Differently explores how people of faith and goodwill might
mark the midwinter season and the Christmas festival with integrity and
simplicity. How can we include others and celebrate difference without
putting us all under intolerable strain, or perpetuating false and oppressive
myths of the ideal family life ?
