THROUGH MANY DANGERS

The Story of John Newton

Brian H. Edwards

Large Paperback 368pp

Completely revised and updated

A common sailor at the age of eleven and press-ganged onto a man-of-war at nineteen, John Newton experienced the thrill of action against French warships and the cruel lash of navy discipline for desertion. Rejecting God and morality, Newton entered the slave-trade, became a slave himself and, by the age of twenty-three, was little removed from the state of a wild animal.

A violent Atlantic storm brought Newton to his knees and to God. The servant of slaves rose to occupy the pulpit of the most influential church in London.

As author of the well-known hymn ‘Amazing Grace’ Newton left hymns and letters that have inspired many for over two-hundred years.

  Brian Edwards lives in Surrey where he was the minister of Hook Evangelical Church for twenty-nine years prior to his appointment as President of the Fellowship of Independent Evangelical Churches (FIEC).
