Did Christianity begin as a mystery cult led by a man named Jesus? Did the initiation ritual contain mysterious ceremonies that only Jesus could perform? Who was the young man in the Gospel of Mark wearing nothing more than a sheet? Why was he there? Was he about to undergo the rites and rituals of initiation into the Jesus cult, or was he simply there to be baptized into the faith? Are there other “Gospels of Mark” out there? What do they say about Jesus, his life, death, and resurrection?

In 1958, Morton Smith, a professor of ancient history at Columbia University, found a previously unknown letter of Clement of Alexandria in the monastery of Mar Saba situated 20 kilometers (12 miles) south-east of Jerusalem. The letter from Clement mentioned an unknown Gospel called The Secret Gospel of Mark. Its contents would start a firestorm among scholars and academics.

You are about to venture into the twisting, turning world of discovery, history, and allegations, as scholars battle to decide what this discovery means and what its place could be in the history of the faith.
