Prologue: ‘coals of holy fire’ : 1628: that eventful year
‘A hint of my pedigree’: John Bunyan’s family
Childhood days
A soldier’s lot
A babble of voices
The young brazier
A ‘kind of despair’
What the tinker overheard
The roaring lion
‘Satan has desired to have you’
‘Sell him, sell him!’
‘Gold in my trunk’
Called to preach
Defending the faith
Repercussions
Reproaches for Christ’s sake
The gathering storm
‘One here will constant be’
By the light of a candle
A prisoner of conscience
The trail
Seeking a royal pardon
‘He dares not leave preaching’
Living on the invisible God
A prisoner of hope (1662-64)
The city of gold
‘A drop of honey from the carcase of a lion’
A masterpiece in the making
From a den in the wilderness
Beyond the wicket gate
Palace beautiful: an independent church
The pilgrim path
The suffering church
A strange conclusion
Freedom at last
A painful controversy
The Bedford pastor
Tenuous liberty
A publishing venture
A time of fear
‘Come wind, come weather’
The battle is the Lord’s
The wiles of the devil
Travels of a pilgrim church
Troubled times
A passionate preacher
Sharpening his quill
Crossing the river
Through the centuries
Appendix I: a brief account of the build-up to the Civil War ; Appendix II: John Gifford’s letters to his church written shortly before his death ; Appendix III: John Bunyan’s deed of gift ; Appendix IV: Bunyan’s works in order of writing
