George Gil Lampkin has several personally favorite Bible verses, some of which show up in the Gospel of Mark.  One of his favorite verses is concerning the man in chapter nine that desperately wanted to get help for his son as he cried out to Jesus, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” (Mark 9:24).  Jesus helps us believe!  Because of his connection with the Gospel of Mark and those impactful verses, along with him being moved to lead a Bible study through the Gospel of Mark, Gil made the decision to write down his thoughts concerning every story in the book of Mark. This book is a result of his preparation for the Bible study.  The book is a commentary that presents the thoughts and ideas that came to him from studying those stories. This book presents his comments in ways that readers may not have considered before.
