The Pilgrim's Progress: From this world to that which is to come

A powerful Christian classic—faithfully restored and made readable for today’s generation.

Written from prison in the 1600s, The Pilgrim’s Progress by John Bunyan is one of the most widely read books in the English language—second only to the Bible. This enduring allegory traces the spiritual journey of a man named Christian as he travels from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, facing trials, temptations, and triumphs that reflect every believer’s walk of faith.

Bunyan, a poor, unlicensed preacher in a time of religious persecution, was imprisoned for over twelve years. It was during this time—armed with little more than the Bible and Foxe’s Book of Martyrs—that he penned this extraordinary story. His deep reliance on Scripture and close relationship with the Lord shine through every page.

This edition, edited by Russell M. Stendal, is based on an 1832 printing that preserves Bunyan’s original notes and rich use of Scripture. Lightly modernized for clarity, it avoids the theological edits, omissions, and abridgments found in many modern versions.

Ideal for personal study, discipleship, homeschool use, or devotional reading, this edition invites a new generation to experience The Pilgrim’s Progress as Bunyan intended—powerful, uncompromised, and full of eternal truth.
