Considered John Calvin’s magnum opus, this is written as an introduction to the Christian life. It is considered the best articulation of Reformation principles and is a thorough introduction to biblical Christianity.

Self-denial, submission to God, bearing one’s cross, enduring suffering for the sake of righteousness, and meditating on the life to come, are themes in this book that will help believers reflect on their lives as Christians and lean on the grace of Jesus in everyday life.
