About this audiobook
One of the most respected and influential Christian leaders of the last several 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 decade 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
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.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Read along with the audio. Colson was quite opinionated. I learned he was involved in prison ministries. Appreciate his no way you can misconstrue his beliefs on homosexuality, biblically. And, chuckled during Bill Gates.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Enjoyed listening to this masterpiece. It was exciting to know a lot of new things
