The New Pilgrims Progress – Part 10 – The Land of Caution

The New Pilgrim’s Progress is a modern retelling of John Bunyan’s 17th century classic “Pilgrim’s Progress.” After descending the Mystic Mountains, Pilgrim and Truthful continue on the Way. They meet the Rich Young Ruler from the Bible, who has found a way to keep his riches and follow the Lord. They stop at the home of Family Woman, who with her husband and seven children is an advocate of Family Values. After being serenaded by their children with a rendition of “So Long, Farewell” from the Sound of Music, the two pilgrims continue on their Way.Soon they meet a faun named Gida, who reminds them of Tumnus from the Chronicles of Narnia. As it turns out he was C.S. Lewis’ inspiration for Tumnus. Gida is one of the goats from Jesus’s parable of the Sheep and the Goats. The two also meet the Centurion, who was praised for his faith by Jesus. He tells them of his meeting with Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr. Finally they meet Evangelical, a friend of Pilgrim’s from the Shadowlands.   View Marshall's books here:https://www.amazon.com/stores/Marshall-Davis/author/B001K8Y0RU
