Book Description:

Prayer is central to the Christian life, which is why John Calvin spends more time on prayer than on any other topic in his Institutes of the Christian Religion.

Drawing from the Institutes and Calvin's Old and New Testament commentaries, Donald K. McKim comments on Calvin's biblical insights on prayer and intersperses his short readings with Calvin's own prayers.

Reflection questions and prayer points help you to meditate on Scripture, understand Calvin's teaching, and strengthen your own prayer life.

Author:

Donald K. McKim has served as a pastor in the Presbyterian Church (USA), a professor of theology and academic dean at Memphis Seminary, a professor at the University of Dubuque Theological Seminary, and an editor for Westminster John Knox Press. He is an award-winning author and editor.
