Death of Charles Colson

It is reported that Charles Colson has died aged 80. He has long been an insightful evangelical Christian leader and Prison reformer.
I remember him coming to Australia and being a guest speaker on the programme Meet The Press where he spoke before many of Australia's then leading journalists.
He was very warmly received by them and I still have a tape of that programme.
He will be sadly missed as he was constantly throwing out challenges to Christians and shared openly also of his own failures and worries but always pointing back to Jesus Christ.
Below is how Chritianity Today reported on this.
