62. The Resurrection (Mark 16:1-8)

Mark gives a brief but powerful affirmation of the resurrection of Jesus. In doing so, he leaves the reader with the most important question any person will ever face, whether to flee from Christ in fear, or to come to Christ in faith. The woman at the center of this story, who fled in fear, would of course eventually come to faith in their risen Lord. Mark hopes that all who read his words will come to the same conviction.
