FRC (Family Research Council) tribute here: (via ChristianNewsWire) Oral Roberts University: ORU President Mark Rutland's Statement on the Passing of Chuck Colson Sunday, April 22, 2012 1:12 PMHere is a powerful letter from the other two Manhattan Declaration drafters, Robert P. George and Timothy George, who worked closely with Chuck. (Dr. Timothy George is also Chairman of the Board of The Chuck Colson Center for Christian Woldview). It begins: Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come! - 2 Corinthians 5:17 NIV Dear Manhattan Declaration Signers, Supporters, and Friends, "Just as Jesus wept at the death of his friend Lazarus, we who are our Lord’s disciples weep at the death of Chuck Colson, our beloved friend and brother in Christ, who passed away this afternoon. We grieve but not as those who do not know that Christ has conquered death. We mourn the loss of a great leader but we confidently entrust him to Jesus Christ..." read the rest at ManhattanDeclaration.org We just received a statement from Max Lucado, which he sent last night: Sunday, April 22, 2012 11:23 AM It is hard to imagine the Christian landscape without Chuck Colson. About the time I began my walk with Christ, Born Again was published. He will be sorely missed. But let us rejoice at the power of a redeemed life. May God bring healing to the hearts of his family and friends and glory to His name.

Robert Sirico Chuck Colson and the Action Institute Saturday, April 21, 2012 9:00 PM Tribute from U.S. Senator Dan Coates Statement from Evangelist Billy Graham on the Death of Prison Fellowship Founder Chuck Colson:
For more than 35 years, Chuck Colson, a former prisoner himself, has had a tremendous ministry reaching into prisons and jails with the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ. When I get to Heaven and see Chuck again, I believe I will also see many, many people there whose lives have been transformed because of the message he shared with them. He will be greatly missed by many, including me. I count it a privilege to have called him friend.
