## Resource

In this episode we revisit a great conversation that continues to edify us during the Lenten season. In recognition of the Lenten season, Bishop Ken Carter interviews Dr. Clifton Black, an Elder in the Western North Carolina Conference and authority on the Gospel of Mark. A native North Carolinian, Dr. Black talks about the connection the Gospel of Mark has with the Lenten season, as well as what makes it stand out from the other three Gospels of the New Testament. Learn more about the WNCC 2024 Lenten spiritual practices.
