Wilberforce Weekend Honors Chuck Colson

Prison Fellowship had the joy of participating in The Colson Center’s annual Wilberforce Weekend conference on April 8-9 in Washington, D.C. We joined hundreds in honoring Chuck Colson as the recipient of the 2016 Wilberforce Award. We also celebrated the 40th anniversary of Prison Fellowship, founded by Chuck, and the 25th anniversary of BreakPoint, Chuck’s radio broadcast created to build and resource a movement of Christians committed to living and defending the Christian worldview.

The Kingdom of Heaven Is Like Leaven

A version of the following article originally appeared on the website of the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview. To learn more about the work and the mission of the Colson Center, visit their website at www.colsoncenter.org.

 

“The kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three pecks of flour until it was all leavened.”

Swimming Upstream

A version of the following article originally appeared on the website of the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview. To learn more about the work and the mission of the Colson Center, visit their website at www.colsoncenter.org.

It's a story Chuck Colson told many times, but it's worth re-telling-especially as many of us see our culture, our society, darkening day by day.

A Refuge from Life’s Storms

Leigh Littrell sat in the local county jail parking lot, praying her heart out. Lord, she asked, as she tried to get ready to assist teaching a class to female inmates, help me see these women through Your eyes. Give me your love for them, because I can’t do it in my own strength!

A Memorable Christmas

What was the most memorable part of the recent Christmas season?  Was it receiving the perfect gift?  Seeing friends and family?  Perhaps it was a grand Christmas dinner, or seeing the look on the faces of children or grandchildren as they enjoyed all of the joy and laughter that comes with the holidays?

On the Shoulders of Saints

Recently in Decatur, Ala., I was privileged to visit a new ministry founded by a graduate of the Colson Center’s Centurions program.

During her studies, Leigh learned to incorporate a Christian worldview into every aspect of her life. She learned to stand on the shoulders of those who had gone before her so that she could see where God was leading her.
