About this listen

Often disguised as something that would help him, evil accompanies Christian on his journey to the Celestial City. As you walk with him, you'll begin to identify today's many religious pitfalls. These are presented by men such as Pliable, who turns back at the Slough of Despond; and Ignorance, who believes he's a true follower of Christ when he's really only trusting in himself. Each character represented in this allegory is intentionally and profoundly accurate in its depiction of what we see all around us, and unfortunately, what we too often see in ourselves. But while Christian is injured and nearly killed, he eventually prevails to the end. So can you.

It was a fun journey that was filled with truth and marked observations of the Christian life. Better than a sermon.

Loved it! It was an insightful journey!

So unlike the version we were forced to read at school. This is an enjoyable story now and it is very easy to see the underlying nature of Bunyan's tale.
Make sure you give this to your children so that they understand the story before they meet it in English Literature lessons. They will appreciate your help and support.

Now Enjoyable

I hardly need to write a review of a book so widely read outside the bible. The performance is good and thankfully easy to understand at 2.5 it's normal speed which I have started to listen to . I shall listen again to all of it at that speed. Bunyan had such a clear mind and grasp of theology it would take a lifetime to plunge into the depths of his biblene thought , all I can say is taste and see I got one am not disappointed.

More enjoyable and thought provoking than I ever expected.
Oh to live in a world where your name defines your character. But also to know your character is only part of the way God accesses you.
So well constructed and referenced story line.

Wow! More enjoyable than expected

This is a modern English version of The Pilgrim`s Progress which I have been waiting to become available in audio. Unfortunately, in this audio edition the text of Scripture references are also read along the reading the text of the book. This is quite distracting and interrupts the narration of the story, especially so in the case when the Scripture being read is a bit long. Other than that this modern version is what I want to listen to as it is very clear and easy to understand.

Easy to underdtand but...

If this book wasn’t for you, who do you think might enjoy it more?

It was for me, but not the narration

Would you ever listen to anything by John Bunyan again?

Yes, but not with this narrator

How did the narrator detract from the book?

Try reading it in English!

What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?

All

Terrible American accented narration!

dreadful narration, especially Mercy. Missed a lot of her dialogue due to Cockney accent, but most of narrator's accents were extremely poor and dare I say, offensive

awful narration. actually spoiled enjoyment
