When you read the gospel of Mark, you quickly discover the focus is on the work and ministry of Jesus Christ. Personal details about Jesus' life are kept to a minimum. You don't find a lengthy explanation of His birth.  You don't read a detailed chronology of His family.  There aren't even that many teaching discourses. The bulk of the gospel of Mark is an account of the outreach and ministering of our Savior.  Indeed Jesus didn't just preach, He practiced what he preached.
