YES -- 'AMY GRANT' IS of part JEWISH lineage.

Her great-grandfather ('Mr. Andrew Mizell Burton') was

a Jewish man who had owned a very successful insurance

corporation (Life and Casualty Insurance) in Tennessee

-- through which he made a great deal of money.

It is said that the money made by the success of the insurance

corporation of' Mr. Andrew Mizell Burton' (the great, grandfather

of former psuedo-religious singer, 'Amy Grant') was used by him

to rise up the social ranks by making monetary donations certain

religious groups (although he was not known to have believed in

the doctrines espoused by these groups) and that the money

was also used by Amy Grant's well-off, well-connected family

to target religious audiences in order to launch her music career.

This may be one reason that the songs that are

written and recorded by 'Amy Grant' (America's

little "darling of pseudo-Christian Music" often

havea strong Old Testament / Torah theme.
