Seminary Chapel Scripture: Mark 16:1-8 The shorter, and probably original, ending of Mark concludes with the women fleeing from the tomb, “for terror and amazement had seized them.” What kind of ending is this to a gospel? It bothered the early church so much they added longer endings to it. But what if the Gospel is supposed to be unfinished? What if it is up to us to do that with our belief in the words of the angel who said the risen Jesus has gone on ahead of us?
