John Newton wrote this hymn with his own life experience as a guide. He was a flop in school and in business, a deserter of the Royal Navy and flogged for it; he even captained slave ships with all the horrors of this trade of human beings—all without a single qualm of conscience. But God is very good at turning people around, and so it was with Newton. He was ordained and was appointed to a small, poor church in Olney, England. At this location and among these people his hymns first were sung. We're still singing many of them today.

Chuck's creative background is wide and varied. He was a professional violinist, a published author, a multilingual graphic designer, a community college teacher, a Lutheran (ELCA) pastor, and a book designer (interior and covers). As a result, his work could be broadly categorized as digital art. His graphic design influences his digital art; and his digital art has features of his design work. In other words, they overlap. Someone put it this way: "What you do is not traditional art, and it isn't strictly graphic design. It's somewhere in-between." Chuck says he couldn't have said it better.
