Ex Nixon adviser Colson finds new life in faith after Watergate
Charles Colson, once a top Nixon aide and $200,000-a-year lawyer, says his transformation after seven months in prison deepened his Christian faith. He aims to spend time with prison outreach, avoid his old life, and work part time with a religious movement. He discusses his book plans, meetings with the Watergate prosecutor, and his fervent conversion amid trials, while detailing prison experiences and ongoing spiritual work.
