The Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan Every Child Can Read Part 2

New pilgrims join Christian and after passing through the Wicket Gate they find guidance and reflection in the Interpreter’s House learning spiritual truths through symbolic visions they experience a spiritual awakening at the Cross and receive rest and training at the Palace Beautiful undergoing inner restoration traversing the Valley of Humiliation receiving hospitality from Gaius and ascending the Delectable Mountains Christian gains profound insight and compassion he then resists the temptations in the Enchanted Ground and moves forward with renewed clarity toward the Pilgrim’s Home seeking completion and rest and through the tales of The Little Pilgrim and the little girl who tried to go on pilgrimage it is allegorically emphasized that true pilgrimage transcends external acts becoming a journey of the heart and faithful living.
