John Bunyan is known across the English-speaking world as the author of The Pilgrim's Progress. But who was Bunyan, and what was it that provided him with the stimulus and inspiration to write that most revered and well-loved of allegories?
The answer can, in part, be found in Grace Abounding, for it is here that we are given a glimpse into Bunyan s own spiritual experience. The vivid images of Pilgrim's Progress, such as the 'Slough of Despond', or 'Doubting Castle', are brought to mind as Bunyan tells of his own pilgrimage how he came to understand and rest in the love of God in Christ.
