Watergate was a cataclysm- the reverberations rocked the American establishment to its core. Nixon fell from power and along with him a number of his cronies and partners in crime. Charles Colson was one of the most notorious.
Charles Colson: A Story of Power, Corruption, and Redemption is the first complete account of Colson's carly years. Based on private papers at Wheaton College, exclusive conversations, and the Nixon Presidential Papers at the National Archives, this book traces the story of Colson's transformation from political insider and White House hatchet man to one of the most important and inspiring spiritual figures of our time.

In his magnificent classic, Chuck Colson shakes the church from its complacency with a penetrating look at the cost of being Christian.For those who have wondered whether there isn’t more to Christianity than what they have known—and for those who have never considered the question—Loving God points the way to faith’s cutting edge. Here is a compelling, probing look at the cost of discipleship and the meaning of the first and greatest commandment—one that will strum a deeper, truer chord within even as it strips away the trappings of shallow, cultural Christianity.“Looking for the complete volume on Christian living? This is it. And the title sums it up. If you desire life deep, rich, and meaningful, then it is simply Loving God.”Joni Eareckson TadaPresident, Joni and Friends
