About the Author

John Bunyan (1628-1688) was born in Elstow, England, and his life was spared twice in his early years, something he believed God had done for a special purpose. In November 1660, when Bunyan arrived to preach in the little town of Lower Samsell, he was informed that a warrant had been issued for his arrest. Unwilling to denounce his Christian faith and his calling to the ministry, he was imprisoned for twelve years. Among the many writings he published during his imprisonment are The Holy City, Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, and the most famous, The Pilgrim's Progress. After his release, he continued to write and publish stirring works that have endured through time. Among these classics are The Holy War, Bunyan's Visions of Heaven and Hell (originally entitled My Sojourn to Heaven and Stopover in Hell), and Journey to Hell: The Life and Death of Mr. Badman.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful!, December 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Victory in the Wilderness: Growing Strong in Dry Times (Paperback)

This book really brought me closer to God and understanding why we go through those times of hardship. John Bevere has such a unique way of presenting the truth to God's children. After I read this book, I prayed for God to mold me and make me into the vessel He desires for me to be. Watch out though, because very shortly after that prayer, I was molded in such a way that I never expected! God answers prayers. Seriously, this was a book I couldn't put down!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome Book!, February 19, 1998

This review is from: Victory in the Wilderness: Growing Strong in Dry Times (Paperback)

If you or someone you know are in a dry time in your walk with the Lord, this book is for you. God used this book to radically change my perspective on where God is and what He is up to when it "feels" like He is a million miles away. As a pastor, I have given many copies away. Each time, those I gave it to bought copies for friends and passed it along.

Wow! What can I say? God really touched my heart through this book. He showed me that the wilderness was a time of refining and preparing. He also showed me that I can victory in these dry times, which were really times to prepare me for the Call! Praise Him! I HIGHLY recommend this book, and ALL of John Bevere's other books and videos!
