Pilgrim's Progress

This is a great rendition of John Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress"... this book was written in the late 1600's... during a tumultous time in Christian history... This book is the result of years of telling stories to his children when they would come and visit him in prison... he was imprisoned for preaching without a license... you had to be licensed by the Anglican church, yet Bunyan's beliefs were not in line with that church, and he wanted to preach... many of his fellow Puritans fled to America for religious freedom... yes, I'm talking about the Pilgrims... Yet Bunyan felt like his calling was there in England, preaching to the people... so he stayed... he was imprisoned for 12 years... he would have been released at any time, if he'd promised to NOT preach the Gospel... he would not do that... During his time in prison he supported his family by writing books... He wrote 59 books... The Pilgrim's Progress was an allegory of the trials, tribulations, and temptations that come against Christians on their quest to "endure to the end"... Its a really neat book, and very relevant to today...
