The book that tells the story of Koinonia's early years.
In 1942, a small group of Christians moved onto a worn-out farm in southwest Georgia and attempted something both simple and radical: to live as neighbors across racial lines, share what they had, and take the teachings of Jesus seriously.
It did not go well.
Or perhaps it went exactly as the Gospels suggest it might.
Boycotts. Threats. Gunfire. Dynamite. Extraordinary friendships. Unexpected grace.
In The Cotton Patch Evidence, Dallas Lee tells the story of Koinonia's first twenty-eight years and the people who refused to abandon their vision when the cost became painfully high.
This edition includes a foreword by Lenny Jordan, son of Clarence and Florence Jordan, along with an afterword by Koinonia Director Bren Dubay reflecting on Koinonia's continuing work today.
