On Today’s episode of the Kerusso Daily Devotional, we talk about John Newton, the author of “Amazing Grace.”
Amazing Grace, How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now am found
T'was blind but now I see
John Newton the Anglican priest penned 280 thoughtful hymns to accompany his sermons, but before he became a minister, he was an active participant in the slave trade — even after he became a Christian believer. Talk about needing God’s grace!
