The trials of growing up are presented in the new and original context of a vampire society, and they're woven into a thoroughly entertaining story. Zoey is a dynamic and spunky heroine who has an amusing and realistic voice. She's surrounded by secondary characters who are just as engaging. The dialogue is sharp and the references to real people and pop culture add to the story. This promises to be a highly addictive series.

Simultaneously, Jesus becomes increasingly misunderstood and rejected, even by his own apostles. Jesus notes his disciples' frequent misunderstandings of his message. Jesus's power continues to reveal itself in his control over nature: he calms a storm, cures a man possessed by a demon, and revives a dead young girl. Despite his successes, however, he continues to be reviled in his own hometown of Nazareth. The story of Jesus's ministry reaches King Herod Antipas, the ruler of Galilee who beheaded John the Baptist. Jesus disperses the apostles, charging them with the responsibility to spread the Gospel and to heal the sick. When the apostles rejoin Jesus, they are once again swarmed with people eager to hear Jesus's message. Through a miracle, Jesus divides five loaves of bread and two fish and feeds all 5, 000 people. His disciples, however, seem not to understand the magnitude of his miracle: when he walks on water, they are shocked. The Pharisees, who are upset at Jesus's abandonment of the traditional Jewish laws, question Jesus.
29 And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30 But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever, and anon they tell him of her. 31 And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them. 32 And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils. 33 And all the city was gathered together at the door. 34 And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him. 35 And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. 36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him. 37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee. 38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.

A chapter of apocalyptic tone about the destruction of the temple ( Mk 13:1 – 2, 14 – 23) and the coming of the Son of Man ( Mk 13:24 – 27), a discourse filled with promises ( Mk 13:11, 31) and admonitions to be watchful ( Mk 13:2, 23, 37), is significant for Mark's Gospel, for it helps one see that God, in Jesus, will be victorious after the cross and at the end of history. The Gospel of Mark ends in the most ancient manuscripts with an abrupt scene at Jesus' tomb, which the women find empty ( Mk 16:1 – 8). His own prophecy of Mk 14:28 is reiterated, that Jesus goes before the disciples into Galilee; "there you will see him. " These words may imply resurrection appearances there, or Jesus' parousia there, or the start of Christian mission, or a return to the roots depicted in Mk 1:9, 14 – 15 in Galilee. Other hands have attached additional endings after Mk 16:8; see note on Mk 16:9 – 20. The framework of Mark's Gospel is partly geographical: Galilee ( Mk 1:14 – 9:49), through the area "across the Jordan" ( Mk 10:1) and through Jericho ( Mk 10:46 – 52), to Jerusalem ( Mk 11:1 – 16:8).

This shortest of all New Testament gospels is likely the first to have been written, yet it often tells of Jesus' ministry in more detail than either Matthew or Luke (for example, the miracle stories at Mk 5:1 – 20 or Mk 9:14 – 29). It recounts what Jesus did in a vivid style, where one incident follows directly upon another. In this almost breathless narrative, Mark stresses Jesus' message about the kingdom of God now breaking into human life as good news ( Mk 1:14 – 15) and Jesus himself as the gospel of God ( Mk 1:1; 8:35; 10:29). Jesus is the Son whom God has sent to rescue humanity by serving and by sacrificing his life ( Mk 10:45). The opening verse about good news in Mark ( Mk 1:1) serves as a title for the entire book. The action begins with the appearance of John the Baptist, a messenger of God attested by scripture. But John points to a mightier one, Jesus, at whose baptism God speaks from heaven, declaring Jesus his Son. The Spirit descends upon Jesus, who eventually, it is promised, will baptize "with the holy Spirit. "
1 The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God; 2 As it is written in the prophets, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. 3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight. 4 John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. 5 And there went out unto him all the land of Judaea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins. 6 And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey; 7 And preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose. 8 I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost. 9 And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan.
Mk 8:31). A breakthrough seemingly comes with Peter's confession that Jesus is the Christ (Messiah; Mk 8:27 – 30). But Jesus himself emphasizes his passion ( Mk 8:31; 9:31; 10:33 – 34), not glory in the kingdom ( Mk 10:35 – 45). Momentarily he is glimpsed in his true identity when he is transfigured before three of the disciples ( Mk 9:2 – 8), but by and large Jesus is depicted in Mark as moving obediently along the way to his cross in Jerusalem. Occasionally there are miracles ( Mk 9:17 – 27; 10:46 – 52; 11:12 – 14, 20 – 21, the only such account in Jerusalem), sometimes teachings ( Mk 10:2 – 11, 23 – 31), but the greatest concern is with discipleship ( Mk 8:34 – 9:1; 9:33 – 50). For the disciples do not grasp the mystery being revealed ( Mk 9:32; 10:32, 38). One of them will betray him, Judas ( Mk 14:10 – 11, 43 – 45); one will deny him, Peter ( Mk 14:27, 31, 54, 66 – 72); all eleven men will desert Jesus ( Mk 14:27, 50). The passion account, with its condemnation of Jesus by the Sanhedrin ( Mk 14:53, 55 – 65; 15:1a) and sentencing by Pilate ( Mk 15:1b – 15), is prefaced with the entry into Jerusalem ( Mk 11:1 – 11), ministry and controversies there ( Mk 11:15 – 12:44), Jesus' Last Supper with the disciples ( Mk 14:1 – 26), and his arrest at Gethsemane ( Mk 14:32 – 52).
