Resurrection Power - Chuck Colson

born on Oct. 16, 1931, in Boston, the only child of Wendell B. and Inez Ducrow Colson, His father was a struggling lawyer; his mother, nicknamed Dizzy, was an exuberant spendthrift.

He grew up at 15 different addresses in and around the city and attended eight schools.

In 1970, the president made him his “political point man” for “imaginative dirty tricks.”       

“Colson started talking about trampling his grandmother’s grave for Nixon and showing he was as mean as they come.”

Few played political hardball more fiercely than Mr. Colson.

Mr. Colson hired E. Howard Hunt, a veteran covert operator for the Central Intelligence Agency, to spy on the president’s opponents. Their plots became part of the cascade of high crimes and misdemeanors known as the Watergate affair.       

Mr. Colson served seven months after pleading guilty to obstructing justice in the case of Daniel Ellsberg, a former National Security Council consultant

In 1976, he founded Prison Fellowship Ministries, which delivers a Christian message of redemption
to thousands of prison inmates and their families.

Chuck Colson died yesterday at 80 years of age. Watergate felon or man of God?

His legacy is the lives he touched for the Kingdom, not his many human faults and mistakes.

The resurrection from the dead occurred before his bios died yesterday and continues for evermore!!
