About John Bunyan

John Bunyan Quotes




Did you know about John Bunyan?

In his autobiography Grace Abounding Bunyan wrote that he had led an abandoned life in his youth and was morally reprehensible as a result. Its full title is The Pilgrim's Progress from This World to That Which Is to Come. In that same year Bunyan married again Elizabeth by whom he had two more children Sarah and Joseph.

Some other Churches of the Anglican Communion such as the Anglican Church of Australia honour him on the day of his death (August 31) together with St Aidan of Lindisfarne. Though he became a non-conformist and member of an Independent church and although he has been described both as a Baptist and as a Congregationalist he himself preferred to be described simply as a Christian. John Bunyan (28 November 1628 – 31 August 1688) was an English Christian writer and preacher who is well known for his book The Pilgrim's Progress.
