n this engaging blend of poetic story and profound theological truth, Duane Priset has breathed new life into Bunyan's centuries-old classic text. Pick it up and he will draw you into the deep, exhilarating journey that mirrors the life of a true Christian. You will quickly recognize the characters: Obstinate, Pliable, Faithful, and many others. This beautifully reframed narrative is both thought-provoking and reassuring to all those seeking to travel life's road to the Celestial Country. A beautiful and edifying read, it includes useful suggestions for individual or group reection. -- Wendy J. Deichman Professor of History and Theology United Theological Seminary, Dayton, Ohio.
