Royal Vagabonds: How John Bunyan’s Life and Work Offers Hope for Storytellers and Artists
(Joe Sutphin, Erik Peterson, Nathan Engelhardt)

Many Christian artists struggle to feel at home in today’s culture, and can tend to feel unworthy of their calling at times. But we are treasured by God and called by Him to create wonderful things, despite ourselves. In this session, we will discuss the challenges and suffering that John Bunyan endured, leading him to write one of the most endearing and enduring stories of all time. A story that continues to inspire and encourage authors and artists, nearly 350 years later. The session leaders include the team behind Joe Sutphin’s illustrated edition of Little Pilgrim’s Progress.
