Clarence Jordan gives an insightful look at how the church needs to come out from the, ..."stained glass window,"...into the real world, where people are toiling everyday. Clarence grew up as a farmer and wanted to take a 'grassroots' approach to the proclaimation of the gospel of Jesus Christ. He believed that by the gospel, one could overcome the obstacles in his way. He believed Jesus was for the peasant class, because Jesus was a peasant in that day and age.
