Overview
New Translation of John Calvin’s Classic Work Explores What It Means to Live the Christian Life
For centuries, believers have poured over John Calvin’s classic work On the Christian Life to answer a fundamental question: How should I live out my faith? Calvin suggests that understanding theology is trivial if the gospel has yet to “penetrate into the most intimate affection of the heart, take hold of the soul, and have an effect on the whole human being.”
Intended to help believers in all seasons of life, this concise book explores themes such as self-denial, taking up one’s cross, submitting to God, enduring suffering for the sake of righteousness, and meditating on the life to come. Readers will reflect on their lives as Christians and be inspired to lean on the grace of Jesus for their salvation alone. Adapted from the 1559 edition of Institutes of the Christian Religion, On the Christian Life provides practical excerpts for readers of John Calvin.
