Newton and Polly: A Novel of Amazing Grace

by Jody Hedlund

“We will always encounter danger when we stand up for what’s right,” Father said, “particularly when we try to expose the ills of our society. But I’ve learned I must fear God more than man. If he calls me to challenge evil, then I can no more resist his call than I can be content with complacency.”

“If we hold true to God’s Word and walk according to his way—no matter how tempting it is to take the easy path—he’ll bring us to green pastures eventually.”

“True peace of heart, then, is found in resisting passions, not in satisfying them.”

“He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor punished us according to our iniquities. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward those who fear Him.”
