A man dressed in rags, carrying a huge burden upon his back, weeps in the wilderness. The reason for his grief: he's read from the book in his hand that he is doomed and the city in which he lives is destined for destruction. The more he reads, the heavier his burden becomes; and the heavier his burden, the greater his grief.

When a man named Evangelist gives him a parchment scroll and provides instruction on how he can remove the burden from his back and flee from the coming wrath, the man in rags begins a pilgrimage with his ultimate goal being Mount Zion and the Celestial City. Before he gets there, however, the man must face many dangers, toils, and snares along the way: deceivers and the deceived; difficult climbs and roaring lions; humiliation and raging dragons; hobgoblins and angry mobs; false witnesses and gloomy giants; flatterers, atheists and rivers of death; and a multitude of situations and circumstances to test his faith in Christ and his love for Christ.

In God's providence, and by God's grace, the pilgrim will receive help from Shining Ones, Shepherds, saints, scripture, as well as all the graces and promises God provides every Christian through their sojourn in as they travel through the wilderness of this world.

Join Christian through his journey to gain entrance at the Celestial Gate in John Bunyan's classic allegory, The Pilgrim's Progress. This puritan classic is a must read for every Christian believer. The Biblical truths expressed in this timeless tome will inspire your soul, strengthen your faith and increase your understanding in spiritual matters.

Of John Bunyan and his classic story, Charles H. Spurgeon had this to say: ..".he cannot give us his Pilgrim's Progress- that sweetest of all prose poems- without continually making us feel and say, 'Why, this man is a living Bible ' Prick him anywhere; his blood is Bibline, the very essence of the Bible flows from him."
