I loved Pilgrim's Progress. Read a children's version (abbreviated and illustrated) as a child, and the full-length edition later on. Would love to read it again, but before I do, I plan on reading Bunyan's Holy War ( http://snipr.com/holywar ) first.

I have never read the book, for some unknown reason. I have always heard that it should be at the top of every Christian’s reading list, and look forward to the opportunity to dive into its insights.

What inspired me to read Pilgrim’s Progress was learning that Charles Spurgeon had read it over 100 times. Much to my surprise, I already had the book! After reading, I understand why it was such a staple in his reading over the years. It really helped me to see the reality of the battle and warfare in our Christian Journey.

I have never read the book but the idea of reading it with other believers
in Christ interest me a lot.

I have never read the whole thing (I can be a bit ADD when it comes to reading books). I have read the modern paralell by Wilkerson: the dream giver

I have read various editions to my children as well (currently they are 5, 3, 2, 6 mo). The movie has greatly helped them to understand the book better.

I have not read it. It has been discussed many times in various classes that I was in during seminary, but never part of the reading list. It is on my list. Think I even own a copy. Need to dig it up and see what it is all about. I’m thinking I’m going to love it.

I’m a big fan of the great Baptist Bunyan. I read parts of Pilgirm’s Progress to my youngest sister when she was little and we learned much of the Christian life from that allegory!

I also retweeted!

I just started reading “Pilgrim’s Progress”, now at page 27 and already I have a new favorite (second) book. It really brings the Bible to life ofr me as a journey. I’m sitting on the couch now with it on my right knee and the bible on my left. Godspeed!

My children and I have read the Abeka children’s version together, and they adore it, It has really helped me to teach spiritual truths in daily life by reminding them of Bunyan’s allegories.
