Part of the Koinonia mission is to share the words of our founder, Clarence Jordan; to engage in issues of Christian discipleship; and to share the most important values in our community: peacemaking, brother & sisterhood, and non-materialism. This wide selection of books and other media includes the familiar and the rare, both humor and drama, current and historical, and will challenge advanced theologians as well as "prophets in blue jeans."
These items make wonderful gifts for thoughtful friends, additions to any library of peace, justice or spirituality, or study guides for church or college groups.
