A Great Worldview Primer for Discipleship
As my title suggests, Colson's book would be a great worldview primer for discipleship purposes. In a day and age where people believe that creation is an accident and God is a non-issue, we have to begin by demonstrating that it is more logical to look to a Creator than to presume that all of creation is a coincidence, what Colson called pre-evangelism. To take it a step further, many people ...

Loving God
This is a wonderful book whether you are Christian or not. It really depicts what Loving God really is. This book has helped me make my decision for Christ. There are many stories inside that really depicts the foundations for loving God. Chuck Colson has incorporated many wonderful testimonies that truly depicts how wonderful this God is.

There is another side to the Moon!
This book is superbly written and well documented. He has a section describing the Changing Character in Crime which just simply will send chills up your spine. Throughout the book Colson is asking, What is the Remedy? What is Justice? What Must We Do? He does not tip toe around these questions. He presents historical examples and modern statistics and you must decide. I especially liked the ...

Kingdoms in Conflict: An Insider's Challenging View of Politics, Power and the Pulpit

Vintage Colson - Makes You Think and Not Just Feel!
Like Colson's other books, Kingdoms in Conflict challenges you to think deeply about what and why you believe. The title focuses on the precarious balance Christians experience between heavy involvement and no involvement in politics. Colson's thesis seems to be that Christians need to maintain a balance - being in the world while not being of the world and Christians must be a light to the ...

Western Culture used to be Christian based on the Bible and the ten commandments,"In God We Trust", but now it is Humanist through our education establishments to the rest of our society.Humanism has replaced Christianity in law and education.We have become a politically correct relitivistic,darwinian humanist society.Study the Humanist Manifesto's one and two to see how the so-called fathers of ...
Born Again

God is Good
There are a lot of lessons to be learned from Born Again, and Colson shares them as opposed to teaching them, with the fresh, excited style of new convert so that the reader if he is a crusty old saint (like me) is carried back to the days of his first love. The book is part political insight, part Wartergate/Nixon history, but mostly testimony, and the testimony of God dealing with and ...
A Practical View of Christianity (Hendrickson Christian Classics)
4 reviews
William Wilberforce

, 2006
Intelligent and Well-Reasoned
Even though I am not at all a fundamentalist and usually stay clear of books that take a more "evangelical" stance, at the advice of a friend I decided to read this book, and I am glad that I did. Wilberforce obviously spent a great deal of time deciding what to say, and in finding examples to support his arguments, which are from biblical, literary and real-life sources. One of the most ...

Answers the question, "What are we here for".
Mr. Colson does a great job guiding the reader to God through reason and intellect and not just because the bible says so. Great for the skeptic and the believer as well.

Typical Colson Brilliance
Like his other book, How Now Shall We Live?, Colson argues brilliantly and convicingly for a Christian worldview. This book is not perfect and I have my disagreements with him on several issues, which I will voice later, but this was extremely edifying to the saints. He has divided the book into three parts: What is the Church? The Church against the World. The Church in the world. ...

Intellectual and spiritual ammunition
Charles Colson is always worth listening too. And many millions do, with his Breakpoint radio series. The essays here come from this program, and comprise some of the best of Colson's Christian commentary on the issues of the day. Like the companion volume, Lies That Go Unchallenged in Popular Culture, these essays can be read in a few short hours, but they reflect a lifetime of learning, wisdom ...

An invitation to be transformed ...
Fitting, I think, to be reading what may arguably be one of C. S. Lewis's most important books, on a retreat during which one of my personal goals was to find a spiritual, if not religious, inner peace. Reading the work of C. S. Lewis is to meet a friend who reflects us and understands us--and helps us to understand. Who of us has not asked these questions? Who of us has not prayed these ...

Truly a valuable resource to understand the days we live in
This is an excellent book. Chuck Colson and Nancy Pearcey have done an outstanding job of equipping the reader with a clear understanding of how important the Christian worldview is and how to fight against worldviews that oppose biblical Christianity. Don't be discouraged by some of the heavy reading early in the book when the authors are explaining scientific terms and theories. Press on, ...
The American Leadership Tradition: The Inevitable Impact of a Leader's Faith on a Nation's Destiny
12 reviews
Marvin Olasky
Crossway Books
, 2000
Excellent book on leadership
This book discussed the inter-relation of the private and public life of our elected officials. Of course, this could have a broader application (business, religion, etc). I was impressed with the honesty that Olasky exhibited by not sugar coating the short-comings of some of our greatest American heroes. He also discussed their strengths, victories and missed opportunities. Anyone aspiring ...
The Design Revolution: Answering The Toughest Questions About Intelligent Design

Gives clarifications
In this well-written book W.Dembski answers many of the toughest questions that are often asked about Intelligent Design. He points out that ID is not based on a religious or theological position, but is based on the scientific process of studying the evidence, no matter where it leads. He clarifies what ID is, and what it is not. He makes the important distinction between detecting design and ...

"The Good Life" - A Good Read
I had an interesting interchange of e-mails this past week with a first-time reader of The White Rhino Report. He was put off by some of the spiritual content of the Blog, and he made the following statement: "I suppose I am a bit uncomfortable with executives leading with their spirituality as a business differentiator. It is not that I have a problem with spirituality. It is just presenting it ...
