Among the Vesper Spires

“God is not only good and true, but beautiful—from whom all blessings flow. This book is an extraordinary example of the beauty and goodness of truth. And not just truth in general, but of the one who is himself ‘the Way, the Truth, and the Life.’ I was riveted by every page as the story unfolded in sparkling resonance. I’m sure that your heart also will be lured to our Triune God by the wisdom and art of Among the Vesper Spires.”


—Michael S. Horton, editor-in-chief, Modern Reformation





“Imagine a catechism to teach the basic doctrines of the Christian faith, an apologetic to defend the faith to skeptics, and a fantasy novel—all in one book. Well, you don’t have to imagine, for that is what Gregory Graybill has written. At the center of Among the Vesper Spires is a lively debate between an angel and an agnostic suddenly required to grapple with the Way, the Truth, and the Life.”


—Joel R. Beeke, president, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary





“Among the Vesper Spires has echoes of John Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress, but also C. S. Lewis’s Pilgrim’s Regress—with the added bonus of catechism questions. It is ambitious to combine allegory with catechism, but the book integrates the two in an interesting way.”


—Mark Noll, professor emeritus of history, Notre Dame University





“At a time in which the transmission of Christian faith to younger and newer believers seems so easily thwarted, this volume extends a helping hand. In Pilgrim’s Progress-like manner, Among the Vesper Spires connects storytelling to substantive theology. In these pages we meet a man whose wanderings invite readers to ponder afresh the time-tested insights of the Westminster Larger Catechism and their own standing in truth. If you enjoy classic content dressed in imaginative attire, explore this work.”
