This book explains why the Berean Missionary Baptist Association in Savannah, Georgia has roots in Darien, Georgia. The history reveals God’s hand upon the Berean Missionary Baptist Association through the Divine spark for action in 1899, a major period of social unrest. Also, this book tells how the name, Berean, its leaders, and workers have impacted the community spiritually, socially, and academically throughout history.
