John Bunyan
(4,661 Sterne; 146 Bewertungen)
Grace Abounding is the spiritual autobiography of John Bunyan, who also penned Pilgrim’s Progress, perhaps one of the most significant pieces of Christian literature, second only to the Bible. Grace Abounding follows Bunyan’s struggle to find true repentance and forgiveness, his battle with Satan’s temptations of unbelief, his comfort found in the Bible and his overarching victory gotten by the grace of God through Jesus Christ his Son. Readers familiar with Pilgrim’s Progress will recognize that many of the allegorical points in his famous work came out of Bunyan’s own struggles and discoveries, and it has been said that Bunyan could not have written Pilgrim’s Progress without first going through the battles chronicled in Grace Abounding.

This is an encouraging account particularly to those who might be struggling with different issues related to commiting to Christ. Each step of the way is filled with Scripture the the reader can also apply.
Reader not to blame for missing paragraphs

Outstanding reader. However, in "A Brief Account of the Author’s Imprisonment" only the first paragraph is read, leaving out the heart and soul of the account. 5 stars for the reader's voice, 0 stars for the editing.
loved this book! Much wisdom and insight to human heart and the gospel is found here.
