The Gospel of Mark

This paper should respond to the prompt below. Your grade will be based on the strength of your
argument and the depth of understanding of the topic you demonstrate. Your position will not be
graded. What will be graded is the strength and reasonableness of your argument.

This is a Position Paper. No research is necessary or expected. The writing should be result of your
personal reflection. If the student finds it helpful to the argument, notations from the text are
acceptable. Cutting and pasting from the internet will result in failing the assignment, maybe the class,
and a report to the Academic Integrity Coordinator.

Prompt: Explain how the narrator of the Gospel of Mark (you should call him Mark) impacts the story of
Jesus told in the gospel. Think of Mark’s social, religious, political, and historical context. Use at least
three stories from the gospel to argue your position.
