So, you don’t consider yourself a Calvinist? Well, John Calvin would probably have been the last man to ask you to. This is the freshest new biography of the man who God used to reform the church and change the lives of many generations, by his insistence that the Scriptures alone be our authority.

Even most students of church history today have little idea who the man John Calvin was, having read more from uninformed contemporary critics than original sources. Robert Reymond has studied Calvin himself and in the light of those who knew him. The reality is quite different from the caricatures often painted today.
