For those seeking modern Bible understanding.

Cotton Patch Gospel makes Scripture feel close to home.

You’ll connect deeply with faith in today’s world.

Discover the familiar stories of Jesus and the early church in a fresh, Southern voice that brings the New Testament to life in your own time and place.

The Cotton Patch Gospel recasts the stories of Jesus and the letters of Paul and Peter into the language 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 Scipture 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 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.\"
