John Bunyan Story, The (TorchLighters Series)

About the Title:  John Bunyan is a hard-working family man. As a tinker, he goes from town to town, mending pots and pans for all who will pay. He's put aside the pranks of youth and his rough days as a soldier and is trying hard to live a good clean life. No cursing, no fighting, and no stealing! But despite all his efforts, John can't free himself from a heavy burden of guilt. Fear of eternal damnation haunts him day and night.

 

Finally, a chance meeting helps John to understand that he must hand his sin over to the One who can carry the load. Once he's free of the burden of guilt, John is like a new man. Nothing can stop him from sharing the good news of salvation with others. Before long, this uneducated tinker is preaching to crowds that are hungry for solid spiritual food.
