Lies That Go Unchallenged, by its own description, is about the culture war between the cultural implications of Christianity and the cultural implications of secularism. Christians trying to wage a culture war often confuse politics for culture and moralism for the gospel. True, Christians believe in morality (while understanding that fallen human beings cannot keep the Law and so need the gospel of Christ). And, true, Christians, in their vocation as citizens, can indeed be politically active (while not confusing the kingdom of God with earthly kingdoms).

Lies That Go Unchallenged in Media & Government

Lies That Go Unchallenged in Media & Government. In this 1993 ECPA Book of the Year, Colson sounds a clarion call for the church to rise above traditional divisions and market-driven programs to be what God has called her to be-His people. In doing so, the Body of Christ can reclaim God's holy vision for His church. Truly a modern-day classic.

  • Charles Colson is always worth listening too. And many millions do, with his Breakpoint radio series. The essays here come from this program, and comprise some of the best of Colson's Christian commentary on the issues of the day. Like the companion volume, Lies That Go Unchallenged in Popular Culture, these essays can be read in a few short hours, but they reflect a lifetime of learning, wisdom and moral clarity by one of our finest contemporary commentators.

    Nearly ninety short but punchy commentaries are divided into five main sections: judicial activism; life and family; religious freedom; government intrusion; and transfer of responsibility. Each of these five areas of concern reflect a war of worldviews: the secular humanist worldview versus the Judeo-Christian worldview. Says Colson, the stakes are high: unless we challenge the worldviews that are tearing down our families and societies, devaluing human life, and whittling away our freedoms, we may well lose it all.

    The last section on responsibility transfer refers to the modern tendency to blame anyone and everyone for our failures and shortcomings. Personal responsibility has been renounced, replaced by a victim mentality that has spread like a disease.

    Colson notes that our litigation-mad society arises from this mindset. We have come to believe that people are basically good and any wrongs we commit are due to society or others. This idea of human perfectibility of course is at odds with the biblical notion of the fallenness of man. Taking ownership for our own bad choices is the first step in redressing this cult of victimization.

    Equally of concern is the slow but steady undermining of religious freedom, especially the assault on Christianity. It is not just a case of government-promoted neutrality, but a bias against Christianity and a bias toward secularism. And as Colson clearly documents, this war on religion is having many serious and disturbing consequences.

    Add to this the activist nature of our judiciary, the never-ending attacks on marriage, family and human life, and the rise of Big Brother government, and we have a very shaky future for the US and the West. But believers are reminded by Colson not to leave these threats go unchallenged.

    The first step in turning things around is to understand the nature of the attack and prepare an adequate defense. Clear thinking and moral discernment is required, and this book provides the necessary ammunition to begin the counterstrike. Once again, Colson performs a valuable service in equipping believers for this important task.

  • Charles Colson has written a thorough examination of the problems in American culture and what the underlying causes are. This book will open your eyes, grieve your heart, and educate you on what you can do to be involved in a meaningful way. This book would be great to lead a small group or large group study with. Everyone needs to read this.

  • THE BOOK WAS STILL CURRENT. THE WRITER WAS OUTSTANDING MY FRIENDS TOLD ME ABOUT THE BOOK. I LOVED IT AND WOULD BUY OTHER BOOK FROM THE COMPANY

  • Charles Colson's "Lies That Go Unchallenged" is a must read especially in light of the rampant cultural decay of our once Christian culture. The book is based on Biblical truth and easily understood examples, Colson equips readers with the necessary responses to deal with lies concerning Judicial Activism - "Judges should use their power to interpret laws", Life and Family - "Each person has the right to make decisions about life, death, and relationships without outside interference", Religious Freedom - "Religion should remain in the church and the private lives of individuals", Government Intrusion - "Government should play a greater role in granting unrestricted freedom" and Transfer of Responsibility - Our personal problems stem from others who are exploiting us for their own end."
    The last time I met with the late Charles Colson (The Centurion Program) he warned us that all would be lost if America changed the "definition of family" to something other than one man and one woman. This book would change many minds IF people were to read it. I recommend it highly.
