Amazing Grace

I saw the movie and if there is one major difference between the two, it’s that Wilberforce’s born-again Christianity plays a much larger a role in the book. The author is clearly impressed with that aspect of his life and so the book reads a bit more like a hagiography than a biography.

Not only is Grace amazing I think Fran Littlewood is too. It’s hard to believe this is a debut so accomplished is the storytelling and the creativity in some of the phrasing.

Mink, "Sublime gracia del Señor" by Cristóbal E.

Retrieved 12 May 2015.I'm a Christian (if you're not, please don't tune out, no sermon coming or anything) as such I'm aware that Jesus never intended the Christian Church to be a "civil governing body". We are not to establish a Christian Theocracy...we are to live as Christians letting that permeate our entire lives and be good citizens. Throughout history there have been times when Christians have had to confront evils so heinous that they could not turn away. Wilberforce acts as a Force for Loving Kindness, yes. But more than that, he has a solid grasp of theology of English--Anglicans and Methodists and a solid grasp on the Dignity of Mankind. ("Man/Mankind" would be Wilberforce's term, not mine.)
