Fearless Pilgrim
Author: Faith Cook
Publisher: EP BOOKS
ISBN: 9780852346808
Category : Authors, English
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
In this new and well-written biography Faith Cook relates John Bunyan to the turbulent times through which he lived, surviving two periods of imprisonment in Bedford prison, sustained by his faith, determined, as he himself wrote to live upon God that is invisible. Faith Cook avoids the temptation of merely regarding Bunyan as one of the great figures of English literature. That he certainly is. But he is so much more a physician of souls, much-loved pastor and powerful preacher of the gospel of grace. The authoress skillfully relates her subject to the political history of his times, in which nonconformists won a greater measure of freedom to worship according to their understanding of the Bible during the Cromwellian period, only to be restricted again after the Restoration of the monarchy in 1660.

The People's Pilgrim
Author: Peter Morden
Publisher: Cwr
ISBN: 9781853458361
Category : Authors, English
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In the attractive style of Peter Morden's previous book about CH Spurgeon, this equally informative and challenging book is about John Bunyan, a remarkable man, who whilst imprisoned for refusing to stop preaching, wrote his famous and classic book The Pilgrim's Progress - the world's second most printed book. Bunyan came from a very ordinary background but he harnessed his gifts to become a preacher of such power that towards the end of his life thousands flocked to hear him. Yet his most powerful legacy is his writing: The Pilgrim's Progress has inspired thousands of Christians through the years and has become a classic in the world of literature. Peter Morden has written a lively, engaging and accessible account of this great man's life, providing plenty of historical context and bringing Bunyan's trials and triumphs alive.

Life of John Bunyan
Author: Edmund Venables
Publisher: London : W. Scott ; New York : T. Whittaker
ISBN:
Category : Authors, English
Languages : en
Pages : 242
Book Description
"All who have undertaken to take an estimate of Bunyan's literary genius call special attention to the richness of his imaginative power. Few writers indeed have possessed this power in so high a degree. In nothing, perhaps, is its vividness more displayed than in the reality of its impersonations. The dramatis persons are not shadowy abstractions, moving far above us in a mystical world, or lay figures ticketed with certain names, but solid men and women of our own flesh and blood, living in our own everyday world, and of like passions with ourselves. Many of them we know familiarly; there is hardly one we should be surprised to meet any day. This lifelike power of characterization belongs in the highest degree to 'The Pilgrim's Progress.' It is hardly inferior in "The Holy War," though with some exceptions the people of 'Mansoul' have failed to engrave themselves on the popular memory as the characters of the earlier allegory have done. The secret of this graphic power, which gives 'The Pilgrim's Progress' its universal popularity, is that Bunyan describes men and women of his own day, such as he had known and seen them. They are not fancy pictures, but literal portraits."--Edmund Venables, M.A. (Author) - Amazon.com
