The Journey Home

Every pilgrim needs a road map for the journey home.

The Journey Home is a six-book ClassicScripts devotional series drawn from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress. Moving in direct sequence from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, these readings help young devotional readers see why Bunyan's great allegory still speaks with spiritual urgency: the soul must wake up, flee to Christ, stay on the narrow road, resist false counsel, endure trial, and finish in hope.

Each book follows the original journey in order while bringing its warnings, doctrines, images, and pastoral force into clear modern language. Readers will meet conviction, grace, assurance, temptation, fellowship, public witness, spiritual danger, perseverance, justification, death, glory, and the King's welcome. The result is not merely a retelling of a classic, but a guided walk through the Christian life with Scripture-shaped wisdom and Christ-centered hope.
