’Watergate reminds us that political office is as much about serving as it is leading,’ says Sharmila Meadows as she looks at the redemption in the life of Chuck Colson, who was once Nixon’s ’hatchet man’ but after coming to faith and going to prison, formed the Prison Fellowship.

This summer marked the 50th anniversary of the resignation of President Richard Nixon after Watergate. For those unaware, Watergate was an act of political espionage and sabotage of America’s Democratic Party’s 1972 presidential campaign, conducted and financed by Nixon’s re-election campaign.
