Saving Calvinism

Theology

“All of this work offers insightful historical retrievals to show 'evidence of a broader, more generous historic Calvinism than one sometimes finds in its contemporary advocates.' If the Reformation is 'always reforming,' it's important to see that work ongoing, moving forward while holding to the past. Crisp acknowledges the central concepts of the Reformed tradition, but demonstrates that these ideas are not necessarily restrictive or divisive. In a sometimes demanding movement seeking truth, there's room for difference, allowing for common ground in a faith that builds around a living hope.”
