Family Devotions: The Pilgrim’s Journey
Five-minute family devotions for children and the grown-ups who read with them, about three and a half weeks of nights. Read one short chapter aloud: first Bunyan’s pilgrim on the road to the Celestial City, then Spurgeon’s pictures from the farm. Each ends with a prayer and three questions to talk about together.

Torrey, writing for new believers, shows how to begin right — assurance, the Holy Spirit, the church, the Bible, prayer and witness.
