Online resources: Summary: This book investigates the theological function of prayer in the Gospel of Mark and how it relates to faith, miracles and suffering. It begins by focusing on Mark 11:22-25, where the Markan Jesus teaches about prayer, and proceeds to Jesus' prayer in Gethsemane. Prayer as it is portrayed in Mark, the author argues, responds to the issue of theodicy by relating the faithful community to a God who can, but sometimes does not, eliminate suffering.
