Additional Info
John Calvin’s Institutes has established itself as “one of the most important theological works ever written,” writes Tony Lane. This abridged edition of the Institutes provides a readable and inexpensive sampler of Calvin’s greatest work.
Lane has condensed the 1559 edition, retaining the heart of Calvin’s teaching on all his major themes. Hilary Osborne has put Henry Beveridge’s translation “in simpler and more modern English.”
The result is “a selection from the Institutes which is manageable for the average modern reader, in terms of length and of intelligibility.” Lane reminds us that Calvin designed the Institutes “to be a practical book …. He requires of all doctrine that it be scriptural and that it be useful for Christian living.”

Problem Of Pain
$17.99Add to cartFor centuries Christians have been tormented by one question above all — If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain? C. S. Lewis sets out to disentangle this knotty issue but wisely adds that in the end no intellectual solution can dispense with the necessity for patience and courage.
