Most Informative Book on the Subject

Wow! I’m not a Pastor or a Seminary Student. This book was so thorough its review of John Calvin and his theology that I could only listen to it a few hours at a time. The explain action of his theology was so enlightening that I had to stop and try to digest the intellect and thinking of this man before I went further. I had no real understanding of Calvin even though I consider myself a reformed theology Christian. I recommend any Christian take the effort to “work thru” this epic book and learn whom John Calvin really was/is.

Fantastic!

This is the best of the best biography of Calvin’s life and theology. I truly enjoy every chapter.

this was a great overview of Calvin, covering both his life and teaching.

The doctrinal side at the end was significantly longer than the initial biography and for some might be less interesting.

An Excellent Presentation on the Theologian of the Reformation

This edition of "John Calvin" is both profound in presenting the person and work of John Calvin, yet easy to read and understand. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would highly recommend to all who are interested in this humble giant in theology of the Reformation.

Calvin Beyond Facts

Most biographies cover the facts of someone's life. This book goes beyond that. It doesn't you Calvin for his ideas, impact, and identity. Very well done!

While the audio reader isn't the most engaging, the content is well worth pushing through for.
