    About this audiobook

    The Labyrinth of the World is about a fellow named Pilgrim who treks through the world in order to find the best way to live, aided by two guides: Mr. Ubiquitous and Mr. Delusion. Pilgrim finds much to be concerned about in the world. Ultimately, he finds something he had not planned upon in his journey: The Paradise of the Heart. This original pilgrim allegory was penned 55 years before Pilgrim's Progress. Find out how an educator and theologian, with real-life experience, penned a profound story that is still contemporary today. This book will inspire you amidst the rapidly changing world around us. Comenius shares how he lived as a pilgrim amidst the rapidly changing world of his time.

      I enjoyed this allegory much more than Pilgrim's Progress. The insights into the deceits and delusions of the world and the wonders of friendship with Jesus and life through the Spirit are much deeper and thoughtful than Bunyan's. The historical accounts of Comenius and his contributions to modern education provided at the end are also fascinating. I want to thank the translator for making this great work so accessible!
