To read 'The Substance of Faith' is once again to experience Clarence Jordan at his best: the flashing wit that could illuminate even as it entertained, the blazing concern that knew how to lay its burden on the heart of even the casual listener, the biting irony that pierced sham and pretense, the depth of spirit that saw fresh meaning in the most familiar passage of Scripture. Within the pages of this book, you'll discover the basic themes of Clarence Jordan's life: Incarnational Evangelism," the God Movement," and his prophetic insight into the enemies of authentic faith, such as Mammon. Dallas Lee has brought all this together from what Clarence Jordan said in pulpit, classroom, and lecture hall.

Clarence Jordan and his wife Florence, together with Martin and Mabel England, founded Koinonia Farm in 1942, an intentional Christian community located in Americus, Georgia. His primary works include the Cotton Patch Version of most of the New Testament. Bill Lane Doulos does pastoral work with the Episcopal Church of Our Saviour in San Gabriel, California, and serves as Director of Housing Ministry, overseeing the Jubilee Homes for recovering men and women. After he lived at Koinonia Farm, he went to Fuller Theological Seminary, receiving his MDiv degree in 1974.
