About this listen

“Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me.” So begins one of the most beloved hymns of all time. This is the autobiography of the man who penned those words. John Newton, the self-proclaimed “wretch”,was an active slave trader for several years until, on a homeward voyage through a violent storm, he experienced what he was later to refer to as his “great deliverance.” He tells of the dramatic, real-life events that led him from sin and bondage to a life transformed by God’s grace.

Thrilling book. Loved listening to the narrator's voice! Could listen all day! The audio was somewhat quiet so needed to connect my phone to a speaker to listen comfortably.

Thrilling!
