Book • 1974

Charles W. Colson

In 'Born Again,' Charles W. Colson chronicles his profound journey from the heights of political power to the depths of public disgrace and personal despair, culminating in a life-transforming encounter with Christianity.

The book explores the intricacies of political intrigue, the personal toll of scandal, and offers a compelling testimony of redemption and renewal.

Colson's conversion began with his reading of C.S.

Lewis’s 'Mere Christianity' and was influenced by various individuals, leading to a spiritual rebirth that transformed his life and priorities.

The memoir includes his experiences in prison, where he began to apply his faith and influence others through Bible studies and ministry.
