Ten years ago in top-selling Against the Night, Charles Colson described the ominous shadows that have engulfed politics, family life and education. Today as we face the new millennium, the book is still pertinent, as the darkness seems in many ways to have thickened. Against the Night, however, is not pessimistic. It gives hope that as we regain our vision of living in God's kingdom and being God's people, we will be a light in the darkness. Colson's new foreword relates the teaching of Against the Night to life in the new millennium, and the study guide helps individuals and groups appropriate it.
