John Mark

John Mark was a close associate of both Peter and Paul. He got to work alongside two of the most prominent men in all of the New Testament. There are a lot of positive characteristics about this man's life that modern Christians can learn from. However, he wasn't a perfect man, and we can learn from his mistakes as well. One thing seems clear about Mark's life: he surrounded himself with great people, and that community of believers helped him grow and mature in his faith over the years.
