Step into the world of The Pilgrims Progress, arguably the most renowned allegory of the Christian experience ever penned. This timeless tale follows Christian on his transformative journey, beginning with a pivotal meeting with the Evangelist. Along the way, he faces trials and doubts, encountering a cast of characters who either aid or obstruct his quest for the Celestial City and his King. Part 2 continues with the adventures of Christians wife, Christiana, and their sons as they navigate familiar challenges, including the Slough of Despond, Castle Despair, and Vanity Fair. Edited in 1909 by Rev. Jesse Lyman Hurlbut, this version updates archaic language and simplifies theological concepts, ensuring accessibility for all readers. Hurlbut aimed not to rewrite this classic, but to enhance its charm by making it plain and engaging. With dramatized voices bringing the characters to life, we invite listeners of all ages to experience this cherished tale anew. (Summary by Beth Thomas)

14 NOV 2026 · pilgrimage to my motherland. An account of a journey among the Egbas and Yorubas of Central Africa, in 1859-60 by Robert Campbell.
Robert Campbell (1829-84) was a Jamaican-born printer, journalist, and teacher who, along with Martin Robison Delany (1812-85), made up the Niger Valley Exploring Party of 1859-60 (Library of Congress), sharing his impressions & observations as a first time visitor to areas of modern day Nigeria. This work is a forerunner of "Back to Africa" movements later spearheaded by Jamaican compatriot, Marcus Garvey Jr (who was born two years after Campbell's death).

13 NOV 2026 · Crusades by George William Cox.
The Crusades were a series of religious wars fought between 1096 and 1272 to recover the Holy Land from Islamic rule. According to the Latin Church, Crusaders were penitent pilgrims whose sins were forgiven. British historian, George Cox, writes of the churchmen, great and small, who inspired the Crusades, of the warriors who left families and lands behind, of the wily Venetian merchants and Byzantine emperors who exploited the knights, and of the valor of the Saracens. Here are accounts of sublime sacrifice and bestial ferocity, of dynastic conflict within the Crusader States, of sieges, starvation, pestilence, and ambush, and of the clash and interpenetration of two cultures.

12 NOV 2026 · Chronicles of America Volume 06 by The Fathers of New England-Charles Morris.
This sixth installment in the series, as one would expect, deals with events in the northern settlements that were taking place at the same times as those in the southern. The opening passage explains: "The Pilgrims and Puritans, whose migration to the New World marks the beginning of permanent settlement in New England, were children of the same age as the enterprising and adventurous pioneers of England in Virginia, Bermuda, and the Caribbean. It was the age in which the foundations of the British Empire were being laid in the Western Continent."

11 NOV 2026 · Treatise of the Fear of God by John Bunyan.
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,” and “a fountain of life”—the foundation on which all wisdom rests, as well as the source from whence it emanates. Upon a principle so vastly important, all the subtle malignity of Satan has been directed, if possible to mislead the very elect; while the ungodly and impenitent fall under his devices. To the mind enlightened by Divine truth, the difference between a filial fear of offending God and the dread of punishment is very plain. Still, by the devil’s sophistry, some of the most pious Christians have been puzzled and bewildered. Bunyan was not ignorant of Satan’s devices, and he has roused the energies of his powerful mind, guided by Divine truth, to render this important doctrine so clear and easy to be understood, that the believer may not err.

8 NOV 2026 · Come and Welcome to Jesus Christ by John Bunyan.
There are few men whose writings have been more honored in the Christian world, or more distinguished for usefulness, than those of John Bunyan. His remarkable life, the simplicity, faithfulness, and success, with which he preached the Gospel, and his deep acquaintance with the windings of the human heart, all combine to give a peculiar interest to the productions of his pen. His Pilgrim's Progress, especially, seems to have gained universal popularity. It is this that makes his works so universally acceptable. This little volume is designed to set forth the "Gospel Invitation"— the full and free offer of pardon and salvation to all who will come and receive it. The difficulties and objections which the sinner is so ready to raise, are one by one taken up, and their weakness and wickedness clearly exposed.
