Chuck Colson on Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

In Chuck's last recorded interview, he discusses Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.

Anyone who writes or speaks truth and considers it to be an important requirement for good character is a hero in today's world. Imagine having conversations with people all day and knowing they were truthful. The last time you spoke with your mother and father, may have been the last truth you will ever hear.

I also really liked Solzhenitsyn and his 1979 commencement speech at Harvard. I've read several of his books, including those mentioned by Chuck. He was a brave and insightful Christian man.

Finishing Gulag Archipelago now...he is a hero. Very profound.

[@chaosdweller]

True, i'm gonna try and check that Harvard thing out.

How can an interviewer be half prepared and not know who Solzhenitsyn was?!

[@LoyalOpposition]

Most don't know half of that.

"God made us for freedom, " not security.

[@prayunceasingly2029]

True freedom is to live in joyful obedience to God Not like they tell us today. They say freedom is to practice immorality.

1:53 ??????? Really? "...a Russian guy..."???? That is ignorant of the interviewer to not know who he is.

[@pilgrimsnest592]

Thats media in a nut shell for you.

[@joedellaselva1251]

@@pilgrimsnest592 In this case, it was a student interviewer but MAN!! He should have some idea of the person he's going to ask Colson's opinion.

is this a Polo commercial? anyway this is a great interview

[@MichaelVandekolk-pe3vc]

The ultimate freedom is from sin nature sins penalty and sins power. Isolated from love values love. The holy trinity the ultimate love. Suffering then helps brings the sometimes blessing of God. The comfort generation is hedonistic and doesn't see any purpose for life. Being perfect without struggle is not the answer I just don't know may jesuslife live I. You and me

[@notmyfirstdaycooton7040]

"You talked about a Russian guy..." Seriously? What is being taught today?

[@percival7754]

athletically extreme evil, but that has little to do with this fellow not knowing Solzhenitsyn

[@heysmitty1231]

Gulag archipelago is now read in high school in Russia.there are college kids in this country that won't read that piece of work....

[@pilgrimsnest592]

Thats Media in a nutshell for you buddy.

[@3RDMILLENNIUMCHESS]

The gulag archipelago is a Blue print of where we are heading. Do not underestimate the power of his writing,it is like nothing ever done before or since. Seriously look up on you tube.

[@syourke3]

Why fox this guy go to prison when Nixon did not?!

[@matthewgabbard6415]

Don’t kid yourself, this guy was in it up to his neck too. Nixon was pardoned that’s the reason he didn’t go

[@matthewgabbard6415]

Of course Nixon wouldn’t see him

[@catholic3dod790]

[@danielmccurdy9948]

Gulag Archipelago is his book.
