Recommending ~ John Bunyan, The Journey of a Pilgrim

As I was recently re-reading The Pilgrim's Progress, we came across this documentary on Amazon Video. I had very little prior knowledge about John Bunyan's life except to know that he had written Pilgrim's Progress during his years in prison for preaching the gospel. Since its publication in 1678, the book has never been out of print and is outsold only by the Bible.

Part of the documentary is dramatization, and part was filmed at the John Bunyan Museum in Bedford, England. It follows Bunyan's call to faith and depicts the religious/political climate of the day. It tells how Pilgrim's Progress came to be written. I now have a far greater appreciation for not only his Pilgrim's Progress, but have also gained an interest in Bunyan's other writings, which I hope to read by and by.
