A truly humble and inspiring man who admitted his wrongdoing, apologized to those he wronged and lived his life differently afterwards.

RIP Chuck Colson.

Earlier CBN News accidentally published an erroneous report that Prison Fellowship Ministries’ founder Chuck Colson had died.

They apologize and take full responsibility for the error.

He has not died but is still gravely ill.

He was truly an inspiring example of how to overcome a mistake that many people would find to be for all practical purposes life-ending, and to instead use your remaining years to do the Lord’s work.

RIP, Mr. Colson.

“Earlier CBN News accidentally published an erroneous report that Prison Fellowship Ministries’ founder Chuck Colson had died.”

Accidentally?

Once again a member of the MSM publishes a story that is blatantly false and they call it an accident?

Where are journalistic standards?

Oh, he’s not passed away? Well, that’s good news, but confusing. Thank you.

God bless this man and his family. He gave it all until the end. As it should be for us all. What an inspiration.
