| 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 overt 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." |
