When Clarence Jordan left seminary and started Koinonia Farm in Amemricus, Georgia, in the early 1940s, his living the biblical dream did no go unnoticed. Koinonia Farm was dedicated to pacifism when World War II raged, to racial equality in the sourthern heartland, and to community living in the midst of American individualism. In this new interpretation and analysis of Clarence Jordan, Ann Louise Coble discovers a life and a community wholly connected to Jesus Christ, with a vision to create a 'demonstration plot for the kingdom of God.'
