Piety of John Calvin, The: A Collection of His Spiritual Prose, Poems, and Hymns (The Calvin 500 Series) - Softcover

An invaluable anthology that has been assembled to promote a warm personal grasp of Calvin, the man. The aim of the book is to know the Christian man as he saw himself, to see the Christian life as he understood it, and to examine both his theoretical exposition or prayer and his own prayers, in the liturgy and for other occasions.

Battles was one of the leading Calvin scholars of his day. He was professor of church history at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary from 1967 to 1978, when he became a visiting professor at Calvin Theological Seminary.
