About this title

From the Back Cover:

The New Pilgram's Progress

The Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan's classic allegory of the Christian life, has endured like few other literary masterpieces. Describing the adventures of the pilgrim on his Christian walk, Bunyan's work is rich with application and timeless inspiration for Christians.

Because today's readers often struggle with the vocabulary of the original edition, Judith E. Markham has discreetly modernized its language while retaining as much of Bunyan's style and form as possible. To enhance readers' understanding, Warren W Wiersbe's extensive notes explain Bunyan's references to his own life, to the culture of his day, to this theological perspective, and to the numerous Scripture quotations and allusions.

The Pilgrims Progress offers as much encouragement to those who are serious about their Christian walk today as it did when first published in 1678.This revised and annotated edition makes the richness of Bunyan's work readily accessible to readers of all ages and backgrounds.

 

About the Author:

John Bunyan (1628-1688), preacher and author, was jailed for his nonconformist preaching. During his imprisonment he devoted himself to Bible study, reading, and writing. He is widely recognized for his narrative genius and his vigorous, simple, concrete writing style. Besides The Pilgrim's Progress, Bunyan wrote several other books, including Grace Abounding and Holy War.

Warren W. Wiersbe, well-known Bible conference speaker and teacher, has written more than 100 books. His extensive notes in The New Pilgrim's Progress offer invaluable background information for today's readers of this classic.

Judith E. Markham, active in publishing for over forty years, has edited hundreds of books, including more than seventeen ECPA Christian Book Award winners. She is the Editor Adviser for RBC Ministries.
