"Walking in Faith" (365 Days with John Calvin

by John Calvin (edited by Joel Beeke)

John Calvin (1509–1564) was a pastor in Geneva, Switzerland, and a prominent preacher and theologian during the Protestant Reformation. He wrote influential commentaries on the Old and New Testaments, and his Institutes of the Christian Religion became a classic statement of the Christian faith from a Reformed perspective.

Joel R. Beeke is chancellor of Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary and a pastor of the Heritage Reformed Congregation in Grand Rapids.

BOOK DESCRIPTION

Walking in Faith provides a unique collection of 365 readings from the writings of John Calvin, selected and edited by Joel R. Beeke. John Calvin exercised a profound ministry in Europe and is probably one of the most seminal thinkers ever to have lived. A godly pastor, theologian, and preacher, he led his flock by example and worked hard to establish consistent godliness in his city. A prolific writer, his sermons, letters, and Institutes of the Christian Religion have been published again and again. His writings, once described as flowing prose, are characterized by clarity, simplicity, and yet profoundness too. In these heartwarming pieces drawn from his commentaries and sermons, Calvin brings us to Christ, the glorious Savior of all His people.
