This was John Bunyan’s third book during his first incarceration.

Summary

This is an extended sermon by Bunyan on family values.

Evaluation by David Cox

In general, this is an older Anglican (Calvinist-Protestant) author, which is a really good sermon in this occasion. Some people might have a few problems following Bunyan, but I would doubt the age of this work would in any way affect the spiritual teaching.

I would recommend this work.
