Explores six encounters between Jesus and other characters in the Gospel of Mark via a series of dialogue-based Bible studies with persons with poor mental health. Focusing on mutuality and seeking to re-imagine power relations, this work explores the Gospel of Mark by drawing together power-aware biblical scholarship, postcolonial theory, and the insights of readers with poor mental health who have first-hand experience of social structures of exclusion.
