Summary
Christian history is full of incredible stories: Origen, Augustine, Wilberforce, Joni Eareckson Tada, Hudson Taylor… In fact, any life lived for Christ, is historic, significant, and inspiring. Success is never guaranteed, but we can be faithful.
Each week, I hear from followers of Christ committed to living for Christ in this cultural moment, also an important time in history. In fact, a recent email just blew me away: "I found your podcast about one year ago, and it has been quite influential in my role as husband, as an elder in our church, in my role as parents of adult children, like grandparents, and owner of a small business. Having a correct worldview and then communicating it in love to the world around us and interpreting events biblically, helps me to live out my faith as I occupy this time and this place, (Acts 17) for God's Kingdom."
The Colson Center exists to help Christians live out their faith in this time and this place. Join us in this work by making a year-end gift. You can do this by visiting www.colsoncenter.org/givehope
