Reba McEntire recently recorded what many consider the most influential Christian hymn of all time—"Amazing Grace." This five-minute devotional explores the powerful connections between three remarkable stories of redemption spanning centuries.
When John Newton penned these iconic lyrics in 1779, he transformed his experience as a former slave trader into a timeless testimony of God's redemptive power. Fast forward to 2006, when Chris Tomlin felt inspired to add the now-familiar refrain "My chains are gone, I've been set free." Tomlin's addition wasn't merely creative license—it emerged from deep reflection on Newton's history and the biblical concept of ransom, creating a beautiful expansion that churches worldwide have embraced.
Whether you're beginning your faith journey or coming back after years away, God's amazing grace continues working in your life. Listen to Reba's powerful rendition and be reminded that it's never too late to "turn yourself in" to the One whose love knows no bounds.
