Gayla C. (hope7) reviewed Born Again by Charles W. Colson on 5/25/2009 + 109 more book reviews

I was very skeptical of this man, after all, hes a polititian and knows how to conive, manipulate, and cheat better than most men in this world so I do not trust him. As I read his book it was just another well educated crook who knows how to hurt and ruin lives as good as any common street thug and no better than any other politian out there. As I read his book I kept telling myself, hes guilty but cant accept that he was actually called on it.
Then I read page 114-117 and said to myself, "maybe hes sincere, time will tell." I like this book for its sincerity. I think he was sincerely sorry for the pain and anguish he brought into others lives while he served as Nixon's side kick. I think he did feel remorse for his life and realized that like CS Lewis's book, Mere Christianity, states so well,that pride is a spiritual cancer that invades our heats and lives and destroys us while destroying others around us too.
The Holy Spirit used this book to draw me closer to God too. I think the Holy Spirit will use this book and Charles Colsons testimony to draw others to him also. I give this book a solid 4. I recommend it to any corporate businessman and esp. to all lawyers and polititians.
