This episode discusses questions about Jesus' use of God's name "I AM" to identify himself in Mark 6:45-54. A commonly-held belief is that only John, the author of the last gospel reported Jesus believing himself to be God, but here in Mark there are several statements of Jesus' divinity that are sometimes difficult to find. We'll help uncover them here and discuss common questions we receive.
