John Newton, the author of "Amazing Grace," was one of the most
prolific letter writers, preachers, and hymn writers of all
times. His writings are filled with great theology and pastoral
reflections, and his sermons delve deeply into the Scriptures.
The readers of this book will be stirred and inspired by Newton,
and they will be able to apply his teachings to their hearts and
lives.
Newton shows us that God is always watching over His children,
protecting them, nurturing them, picking them up, cleansing
them, sanctifying them, and pouring His amazing grace upon them.
This Pure Gold Classic includes an audio-excerpts CD with an
inspiring rendition of "Amazing Grace"; a definitive biography
of Newton: "Out of the Depths"—Newton's own account of his
spiritual journey, letters of encouragement, pastoral letters
from Olney, selected sermons based on Handel's Messiah, and
selected Olney hymns.
John Newton's works are amazing because they still speak to the
hearts of believers and help us understand what it means to be a
true Christian—the "salt of the earth."
John Henry Newton (July 24, 1725 - December 21, 1807) was
an Englishman, an Anglican clergyman, and former slave-ship
captain. He was co-author with poet William Cowper of many
hymns, the most famous of which is "Amazing Grace." Newton is
well-known for encouraging William Wilberforce to work for the
abolition of slavery in Great Britain. The town of Newton in
Sierra Leone was named after this great man.
