I read this book in a day it was so good. I read the modernized version which I recommend as it was easy to understand. It was so good and I love the characters and how well this story was depicted. There’s so much biblical truth and truth that you’ve probably experienced if you’re walking with open eyes. Must read!

I reckon I had too high expectations for this since I’ve heard it all my life. But unfortunately this thing was a slog to get through.

Happy I read it! A definite classic for a reason. The prototype for all Christian literature to follow - John Bunyan’s masterpiece has had a profound influence on the best of Christian thinkers and writers (C.S. Lewis, I’m looking at you). I can greatly appreciate Pilgrim’s Progress for this very reason - its influence in modern culture is significant. However, I can also admit, with no qualms, that it was a slog for me to get through. Perhaps if I approached it more as a study of metaphor and symbolism, rather than a work of literature and storytelling, I would have been more successful.

A Journey Unlike Any Other

parable of all Christian parables

This book is worth reading regularly, and it deserves an upgrade to modernize it, perhaps to consider the journey through various denominations.
