Biola University awarded our Director, Professor Robert P. George, the ninth annual Charles W. Colson Conviction and Courage Award.

Recipients of the Colson Award are committed to advancing Christianity, defending religious freedom, advocating for the weak and defenseless, and modeling bold Christian leadership. Professor George is being honored for his work in the fields of law, philosophy, bioethics, and civil liberties, as well as his efforts to learn from others with different viewpoints while still standing firm in his convictions.

President of Biola University Barry Corey praised Professor George as "a well-known intellectual who has championed religious freedom and public virtue, in a culture where those ideas are becoming less and less popular," as well as "a man of deep and personal relationship with Christ, which animates every aspect of his life."
