Health Care and Ideology
By: Charles W. Colson|Published Date: 03/16/10|Source: Two-Minute Warning, Colson Center
Although Christians should oppose the current Health Care Bill because of provisions like abortion funding and lack of conscience protections, Colson argues that there is a greater reason for opposition--the philosophy behind the bill. Colson explains several of Russell Kirk's 10 principles of conservatism, and shows how the proposed legislation violates these fundamental principles.

Last year, despite the greatest recession in recent decades, America saw a marked decrease in criminal behavior. But wait, haven't we been told that poverty is the cause of crime? No, Colson, explains, the root cause of crime is not society--it is man's sinful nature. As the Christian worldview shows, individuals are ultimately responsible for their own actions.

By: Charles W. Colson|Published Date: 11/03/09|Source: Two-Minute Warning, Colson Center

When Disability Strikes Home
By: Joni Erikson Tada, Charles W. Colson, R. C. Sproul|Published Date: 2009|Source: Joni and Friends TV Series

In this profoundly pro-life video, Charles Colson and R. C. Sproul discuss the challenges and utter blessing their severely disabled grandchildren have brought them and others.  As Colson says, "Max put to the test what I preached.  If I preach that all human beings are made in the image of God, then I've got to live it."  Both men believe in the sovereignty of God, and that contrary to the pro-abortion adovactes, their handicapped grandchildren were ordained by Him, and not mistakes to be disposed of.  God's Word says that children are blessings.
