Many believe Charles Colson and Ellen Vaughn's The Body to be the watershed book of the past decade. It impacted the Church worldwide, encouraging Christians of diverse backgrounds to see themselves as part of the universal body of Christ. Now a decade later, these acclaimed authors have come together to revisit this crucial subject. While retaining the original message's core theme, nearly half of this new, revised, and expanded edition contains fresh stories and riveting insights from today's headlines.
With provocative stories--from Christians weeping for their friends in the rubble of the World Trade Center, to new converts kneeling behind the razor wire of a Delaware prison, to unforgettable pictures of God's people around the world--Colson and Vaughn punctuate prophetic analysis of the problems dogging the Church with striking models of what the Body must be in order to shine Christ's light in the darkness. Abridged. 2 cassettes. 3 hours.
