The Life of John Bunyan
Synopsis
John Bunyan was an English 17th century Christian writer and preacher. He is best known for his allegory The Pilgrims Progress. Bunyan wrote this book while being imprisoned for preaching without a license. This confinement lasted 12 years. In his autobiographical book, Grace Abounding, Bunyan describes himself as having led an abandoned life in his youth, and as having been morally reprehensible as a result. After contemplating his acts as a youth he became a Baptist. In 1655 he became a church deacon and began preaching. His biography is an excellent historical look at the changing views in religion in the 17th century.Book details
