I was invited to deliver the sermon at Downey Avenue Christian Church on July 30, 2023. It is based on the vision and ministry of Clarence Jordan, who in 1942 led in establishing Koinonia Farm, christened with a Greek word meaning “a community that is united by common purpose”. For Jordan, that purpose was to be a tangible flesh and blood incarnation of the Sermon on the Mount with a particular focus on The Beatitudes.
