by Jenny L. Cote (Author)
Twin stories of two men who run from God straight into a deadly storm - and learn that no one is beyond the reach of Amazing Grace.
A slave-trading, blaspheming John Newton runs from God until the Hound of Heaven catches him in a violent storm off the coast of Ireland in 1748. As the storm threatens to sink the ship and the captain threatens to toss Newton overboard for being a "Jonah," Newton's mind races back to his early childhood faith, forcing him to ask, "What if it's true?"
The Order of the Seven team is assigned the mission of intervening in the life of John Newton as he slowly makes his way back to God and eventually pens the most beloved hymn of all time: Amazing Grace. The animal team revisits their previous mission of helping another man who also ran from God and whose faith was also born in a storm: Jonah. Abounding in lessons of failure and redemption, this action-packed book will lead readers from despair to hope and to a clear understanding of why grace is so amazing indeed.
