Who wrote the Gospel of Mark?

Who wrote the Gospel of Mark? Technically speaking, Mark's Gospel in anonymous, since the titles attached to them did not appear until probably the second century. So, who wrote Mark? What do the data suggest? What are the pro and con arguments? And what do the majority of critical scholars think? Josh Pelletier has done the research and answers these questions.

Josh Pelletier is a former student of Mike's at Houston Baptist University. Mike served as Josh's supervisor for his thesis, which included the matters of when Mark's Gospel was composed, the authorship of Mark, and whether there is a connection between Mark's Gospel and the apostle Peter. These latter topics are covered in Parts 2 and 3 of this 3 Part series.
