Based on the book The Cotton Patch Version of Matthew and John by Clarence Jordan in which the Gospel is presented in a setting of rural Georgia with a classic American roots music score.  As this Gospel begins, they sing that “Something’s Brewin’ in Gainesville.”  Herod is governor of Georgia when Jesus is born of the Virgin Mary from Gainesville.  Jesus grows, and so do his followers, preaching a radical message of love.  He is ultimately lynched by the Ku Klux Klan in collusion with then Governor Pilate and the Believe in the Bible Society, only to rise from the dead.  From a mountaintop in Alabama, Jesus empowers his followers on to, “Go out and welcome all people into my Father’s family.”
