My Final Word Summary

My Final Word: Holding Tight to the Issues that Matter Most by Charles W. Colson

One of the most respected and influential Christian leaders of the last decades, Chuck Colson engaged millions through his books, public speaking, and radio broadcasts.

In My Final Word, longtime Colson coauthor Anne Morse has selected and arranged pieces Colson wrote mostly during the last ten years of his life, spotlighting what he saw as key topics of ongoing importance for Christian cultural engagement. Some of these issues include:

  • crime and punishment
  • natural law
  • Islam
  • same-sex marriage
  • the persecution of Christians
  • and more

This paperback edition also contains a new chapter not in the hardcover, Colson's final thoughts on poverty.

Longtime readers and new readers alike will be struck by the power and immediacy of Colson's arguments. My Final Word is a fitting end to Colson's distinguished publishing career, a behind-the-scenes encounter with an influential thinker, and a needed call to an ongoing and relevant Christian public witness.

My Final Word Reviews

'My friend Chuck Colson worked tirelessly to promote a biblical worldview on the sacredness of life, the sanctity of marriage, and our religious liberties. But he had much more to say about other critical issues that are now clamoring for the center stage in our culture---and it is presented eloquently and powerfully in My Final Word!' * Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center *
'After accepting Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, Chuck Colson blessed the Christian community, our nation, and the world with an enormous fund of timeless wisdom. I'm delighted that many of his essays and memos have been gathered together in My Final Word. These reflections by one of the great Christian witnesses of our time will be read with profit for many decades to come.' * Robert P. George, McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence, Princeton University *
'Every man's final words are important, but Chuck Colson was no ordinary man. Chuck's words slice through the fog and clutter of this culture and authoritatively speak to a dozen of the most compelling issues of our day. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to survive the current cultural tsunami.' * Dr. Dennis Rainey, host of FamilyLife Today *
'A great encore. Chuck's fervent joy in being freed by Christ shines through all his slashing critiques of contemporary trends.' * Marvin Olasky, editor-in-chief, World *
'Chuck Colson was a prison-reformer-turned-cultural-transformer. When he left this world for a better one in 2012, he left behind a legacy of sacrificial love and many words of wisdom we still need to hear. This book is filled with such words. They still stir, inspire, and give us hope.' * Timothy George, founding dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University, and general editor of the Reformation Commentary on Scripture *
'Chuck Colson's voice is still heard on the issues of today. In My Final Word he has addressed every issue that confronts the world today. In addition to his wealth of knowledge, experience, and love for Christ, his archival material reveals prophetic insight into how believers in America are going to face persecution because of their faith. Dr. Colson sounds the alarm for the church to ready itself for battle---a necessary part of standing for Jesus Christ and the Word of God in the last days. You will be challenged in your Christian faith, but you will also be blessed by understanding how the gospel is moving forward in troubled times, to bring others to salvation for the glory of our Lord and Savior.' * Franklin Graham, president and CEO, Billy Graham Evangelistic Association; Samaritan's Purse *
