John Newton experienced the thrill of action against French warships, the cruel lash of navy discipline for desertion, the loose and blasphemous life of a free thinker and the pain of an overwhelming love for a girl beyond his reach.

The story of John Newton is an adventure of passion and danger almost unequalled, even by eighteenth-century standards. Brought up to sing hymns and read the Bible, he rejected it all for a life of freethinking and fastliving. An amazing encounter with God changed a callous and debauched sailor into a Christian pastor whose love for his wife and whose warm, caring counsel influenced the lives of thousands.
