Buried Treasure: Unearthing the Riches of the Gospel of Mark
Buried Treasure addresses the easily missed or misperceived themes of Mark's Gospel,
unearthing some surprising discoveries--buried treasures waiting to be found. The book examines nine Markan themes that emerge from the characters, events, and structure of Mark's story. In each chapter, readers follow a single theme, discovering narrative treasures along the way.
Hunter R. Hill tells present-day stories of transformation and change, drawn from myriad sources, including his own life, and connects them to Mark's narrative of transformation, resurrection, and change. He links today's human realities and hopes to those discovered in Mark's artful account of the life of Jesus and those who imperfectly followed him. Hill also draws on the insight of his own master teachers and mentors, whose observations reveal and crystallize the good news unearthed over the years.
Even for those who have spent a lifetime reading the Bible, much remains to be discovered in Mark's story, with Hunter R. Hill as a gracious, thoughtful guide. By reading Buried Treasure, readers unearth the riches of Mark's Gospel.

Best treasure hunt ever!
In Buried Treasure, Hunter invites us to discover and see great value in Mark’s easy-to-miss but highly important clues to the often fearful and frustrating but ultimately hopeful and enlivening adventure of following Jesus in the way of discipleship and servanthood. In this treasure hunt, a modern author and follower has given us a delightful introduction to his old friend, an ancient one.
