{"product_id":"cotton-patch-gospel-clarence-jordan-9781573124225","title":"Cotton Patch Gospel: Matthew and John","description":"\u003ci\u003eThe Cotton Patch Gospel\u003c\/i\u003e, by Koinonia Farm founder Clarence Jordan, recasts the stories of Jesus and the letters of Paul and Peter into the language and culture of the mid-20th century South. Born out of the Civil Rights struggle, these now classic translations of much of the New Testament bring the far-away places of Scripture closer to home: Gainesville, Selma, Birmingham, Atlanta, Washington, D.C. As Jordan once wrote, \"While there have been many excellent translations of the Scriptures into modern English, they still have left us stranded in some faraway land in the long-distant past. We need to have the good news come to us not only in our own tongue but in our own time. We want to be participants in the faith, not merely spectators.\" More than a translation, \u003ci\u003eThe Cotton Patch Gospel\u003c\/i\u003e continues to make clear the startling relevance of Scripture for today. These editions come complete with new Forewords and a new Introduction by Habitat for Humanity founder Millard Fuller. Smyth \u0026amp; Helwys Publishing is proud to help reintroduce these seminal works of Clarence Jordan to a new generation of believers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clarence Jordan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1573124222\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781573124225\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Smyth \u0026amp; Helwys Publishing, Incorporated\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/13\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 0.40d","brand":"Clarence Jordan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987893027071,"sku":"9781573124225","price":14.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_122b94ad-c9a6-47c4-93e4-cec53ecf6ac7.jpg?v=1683291473","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cotton-patch-gospel-clarence-jordan-9781573124225","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
