Amazing Grace is one of the most iconic hymns in Christianity but its origins are deeply unexpected. It was written by John Newton, a former slave trader whose life was radically changed after a near-death encounter at sea. After experiencing God’s mercy, he became a minister and abolitionist, penning the hymn in 1773 as a testimony of redemption. It’s a powerful reminder that no one is too far gone for grace. 🎥 Want more powerful stories of faith and transformation? Subscribe to our YouTube ch
