Description

What if your entire life were a journey—and every fear, doubt, and temptation had a name? In this episode, we delve into The Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan's enduring Christian allegory that turns spiritual struggle into an epic road story. Following Christian's passage from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, we'll explore how Bunyan transforms theology into narrative, making belief, despair, perseverance, and grace tangible through vivid characters and landscapes. More than a devotional classic, this episode examines why The Pilgrim's Progress has shaped English literature, religious imagination, and ideas of the self—and why its vision of life as a moral journey still resonates long after its 17th-century world has faded.
