Description
The Pilgrim’s Progress is a Christian allegory widely regarded as one of the most important works of both theological fiction and English literature. Written by John Bunyan during his imprisonment for Puritan beliefs, this classic has inspired political and religious activists for centuries and remains a beloved read for people of all ages.
Now in Modern English. Just as relevant today as it was when John Bunyan wrote it in his cell in the Bedford County Jail, The Pilgrim’s Progress is the story of every Christian—from the first stirrings of the Holy Spirit beckoning us to follow Christ, to our final arrival in the Celestial City of God.
No book throughout the centuries has ever told better the struggles and temptations of every Christian, and the final and glorious victory. At one time no home was considered to be Christian if it did not have a Bible, Foxe’s Book of Martyrs, and The Pilgrim’s Progress.
Your children will read it for the excitement of the story, and you’ll be challenged and trained by its invaluable teaching and the depth of its doctrine.
“[T]here’s no book in English, apart from the Bible, to equal Bunyan’s masterpiece for the range of its readership, or its influence on writers as diverse as William Thackeray, Charlotte Bronte, Mark Twain, CS Lewis, John Steinbeck and even Enid Blyton…” – Robert McCrum
L. Edward Hazelbaker was so inspired by The Pilgrim’s Progress that he took on the task of translating, updating, and annotating it. Driven by the Holy Spirit and a desire to ensure his own children could benefit from its story, Hazelbaker embarked on this project with the conviction that the effort would be worthwhile, even if the manuscript was never published.
