The Themes and Issues of The Pilgrim's Progress

ON SALE 25% OFF! In Themes and Issues of The Pilgrim's Progress, author Barry Horner highlights the major themes running through the allegory and discusses important issues concerning its relevance and how best to make it known in the twenty-first century. He ably shows how, rightly understood and suitably presented, The Pilgrim's Progress has a vital message for today's generation and is a most valuable tool both for evangelism and for encouraging the spiritual growth of believers. Dr. Barry E. Horner, pastor, received his doctorate (from Westminster Theological Seminary) as a result of years of study into the life, ministry and literature of John Bunyan. As the host of a series of popular teaching seminars on The Pilgrim's Progress, and the author of The Accurate Revised Text Edition a judicious modern revision of the allegory, he has been instrumental in bringing Bunyan's classic alive for a new generation of readers across the English-speaking world. After decades of study and seminar teaching around the world, Dr. Horner has encountered countless questions concerning The Pilgrim's Progress. Here is the fruit of his study, an in-depth consideration of the most provocative and sometimes puzzling elements woven throughout this unrivaled allegory. Dr. Horner's unashamed intent is always to explain and reinforce Bunyan's conservative Evangelical thrust. Over twenty rich chapters include a wealth of information considering not only stylistic, historical, social and communicative issues, but above all the concern of the Bedford pastor to proclaim the gospel that focuses on the glorious grace of God freely offered through Christ. There is no better commentary available today to unlock the depth and riches of John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, nor is there arguably a more qualified scholar anywhere to guide us through this classic and monumental work of literature. To maximize your understanding and enjoyment of this the greatest single Christian book next to the Bible itself we highly recommend two complimentary books. The first is an extensive study manual specifically designed as an adjunct to this book called The Outlined Study Manual. The second is the actual text to The Pilgrim's Progress best found in the aforementioned The Accurate Revised Text Edition. $13.95 About the Author Dr. Horner is a leading authority on John Bunyan and his literary works.
