Larry Oney endured years of adversity and racial prejudice as a child in a sharecropping family on a plantation in northern Louisiana and into his high school years in New Orleans. Black, proud, and angry, his life began to pivot toward hope when a mysterious white woman offered his family a random act of kindness.
Amazed by God’s Grace reveals what it took to bring Larry from resentment to hope and eventually into the Catholic Church where he now serves as a deacon. Deacon Oney’s insights, love of Scripture, confidence in the Holy Spirit, and pure joy will encourage anyone looking for a hope and inspiration in a difficult world. Insightful and thought-provoking meditations follow each chapter.
