Twenty years ago, against the backdrop of the explosive Watergate scandal, Charles Colson revealed the story of his own search for meaning during the tumultuous investigations that led to the collapse of the Nixon administration. A convicted former special counsel to the president, Colson paradoxically found new life not with success and power, but while in national disgrace and serving a prison sentence.
In the new foreword for this anniversary edition of Born Again, Colson describes the day he sat in his prison cell and began jotting down notes of the events that brought about the fall of a president and the rebirth of his former "hatchet man." Those notes developed into this book, which has sold more than two million copies.
"All I knew was that I had a story I must tell, a story that might bring hope and encouragement to others," Colson recalls. In a new epilogue, he describes some of the ways the story has indeed brought hope, encouragement, and more.
Charles W. Colson, former special counsel to President Richard Nixon, is the author of twenty-three books, which have sold nearly five million copies. In 1976 Colson founded Prison Fellowship, which has since become the world's largest outreach to prisoners, ex-prisoners, and their families. In 1991 he launched BreakPoint, a daily radio feature bringing Christian thinking to bear on current issues, which airs on more than one thousand stations nationwide. Colson lives in Leesburg, Virginia.
