Koinonia is a vibrant experiment in living. and Dallas Lee tells its story well. The faith of Koinonia's founders created a vibrant testament to God's beloved community. lIt was s gift to learn more about the commitment, humility and just-plain-grit that they, theIr families and neighbors shared. Their legacy lives on in our broken, but still beautiful, world.
To me it's the authoritative but highly readable version of the Farm's birth and formative years. Lets you understand how all those prayers and efforts, successes and failures, too contributed to fashion a doughty band of witnesses to the truth of Christ's revelation and its taking root in our lives.
