Overview

Live with a bold and loving faith in the public square

Chuck Colson’s life reveals that there is no division between truth and love, between embracing biblical guidance and loving one’s neighbor. The Colson Way uses Colson’s legacy and wisdom to show Christians a way of living a public faith with conviction and generosity toward all.

“A praiseworthy intellectual achievement and a gift to the Christian community.”

—Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence, Princeton University

“Required reading for any Christian seeking to engage in the public square.”

—Frank Wolf, Senior Distinguished Fellow, 21st Century Wilberforce initiative

“I was privileged to know and work with Chuck Colson in several respects. He was a man of character and conviction who understood that believers find themselves in ‘two cities,’ as Augustine wrote. As a member of the city of God, I have dedicated my life to strengthening the city of man. I am so thankful to see Owen Strachan’s The Colson Way celebrate this kind of vision. I commend it highly and urge pastors and churches to buy this book—and to share this vision with their people."

—Mike Huckabee

“An honest, enjoyable, and eye-opening look at one of the most significant Christian leaders of the twentieth century.”

—Sean McDowell, Ph.D., author of The Fate of the Apostle
