This is the powerful true story of the author of Amazing Grace, one of the world's most beloved hymns. John Newton was a sailor, sold into slavery, who later became a slave ship captain -- and then found grace. Leaving the slave trade, he became a pastor and advocate of the abolitionist movement, and one of the most remembered hymn writers of history. Professional actor ERIK NELSON protrays Newton in this powerful one-man drama, which has been performed in the very churches in England where Newton preached.
