What does a journey from sin to salvation look like when it becomes a story?
The Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan explores that question through allegory. Its subject is a spiritual journey from sin toward salvation. Rather than presenting those ideas only as abstractions, the book gives them the shape of a journey to follow.
In this classic literary work, the journey carries a religious meaning: salvation is its destination, and sin is its starting point. Read it as an invitation to consider those ideas through story, with attention to what the journey itself represents.
