My Final Word: Holding Tight to the Issues That Matter Most

Publisher Description

:One of the most respected and influential Christian leaders of the last decades, Chuck Colson engaged millions through his books, public speaking, and radio broadcasts.

In My Final Word, longtime Colson coauthor Anne Morse has selected and arranged pieces Colson wrote mostly during the last ten years of his life, spotlighting what he saw as key topics of ongoing importance for Christian cultural engagement. Some of these issues include:

• crime and punishment
• natural law
• Islam
• same-sex marriage
• the persecution of Christians
• and more

This paperback edition also contains a new chapter not in the hardcover, Colson's final thoughts on poverty.

Longtime readers and new readers alike will be struck by the power and immediacy of Colson's arguments. My Final Word is a fitting end to Colson's distinguished publishing career, a behind-the-scenes encounter with an influential thinker, and a needed call to an ongoing and relevant Christian public witness.
