Description: FROM THE PUBLISHER: Many would argue that a true understanding of contemporary Christian thought is
impossible without a basic understanding of John Calvin's contributions. Now,
just in time for the 500th anniversary of Calvin's birth, William Stacy Johnson,
a leading theologian, offers this clear and fundamental study of Calvin's
insights as a primer for those with little or no knowledge of his work. Calvin
is more than just a figure from history. His life and work-both infused with his
passion for the reform of the church-had a continuing impact through the
centuries, not only on the church but on society in general. Enhanced with
questions for discussion and a handy glossary, this volume is sure to be an
invaluable resource for those who seek an accessible way into a deeper
understanding of Calvin's role in the development of today's Christian faith.
Age Groups: None specified.
