Bunyan at His Best

Revisado: 10-09-24 El oyente recibió este título gratis

For an uneducated tinker, John Bunyan knows how to write theology. His insights are carefully articulated in a way that would (and did in his own day) impress any theologian at the heights of academia, while at the same time presenting to us not a cold, detached subject but as the Puritans said a "felt Christ." Bunyan feels his theology, and this work is a remarkable example of that passionate knowledge.

When one considers that this was written locked away in a prison cell, with nothing but a Bible and Foxe's Book of Martyrs on hand, the writing is all the more astonishing. Here was a man who had internalized his theology and his love for the Lord. Not only is the work itself instructive, but so is its context. May we all love our God with a depth of heart like Bunyan's!

Steve Larsen's narration does an excellent job of reading this work in the way that one imagines Bunyan would want it read. A book like this cannot be read by a disinterested party, and thankfully our narrator is deeply interested in this work. Listener, enjoy!
