Mark Day 1: The Beginning of the Good News

February 18, 2026

Chris Haralson

The Gospel of Mark doesn’t ease us in—it launches us straight into the story. In this opening episode of 40 Days in Mark, we walk through Mark 1:1–20, where Jesus is baptized, tested, and immediately calls disciples. Mark writes with urgency because the good news isn’t just information—it’s an invitation. What nets might Jesus be asking you to drop today? Join this daily journey through Mark’s Gospel and follow Jesus one chapter, one day, one step at a time.
