Description: This volume grows out of a conference at The John Owen Centre for Theological Study in London to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the Reformer's birth. Topics covered include Calvin’s life and reforming work, his Institutes of the Christian Religion, aspects of his theology, and his commitment to revolutionary living and powerful preaching.

The contributors are Joel Beeke, Sinclair Ferguson, Ian Hamilton, Anthony Lane, Ray Pennings, and Paul Wells.

"The quincentenary of Calvin’s birth last year produced a veritable host of books on the French Reformer, some tremendous, some so-so. This is one of the best, and no wonder: combine the richest themes of Calvin's theology and a stellar company of authors who know their subjects really well and you have the present volume. Truly a savory entrée of Calviniana!"
--Michael Haykin

"Another book on Calvin? Yes! And welcome it is, for these addresses retain their spoken style and read like tracts encouraging us to view Scripture through Calvin’s lens—a perspective that proves itself more faithful as each anniversary of Calvin’s life or death passes by. Treasure!"
--Derek Thomas
