John Calvin (1509-1564) remains the largest and most influential name in the Reformed Tradition. His theology has impacted the church for centuries. In his Genevan Catechism, Calvin’s theology is at its most distilled and simplified.
Covering the Apostle’s Creed, the Lord’s Prayer, the Ten Commandments, and the Sacraments, John Calvin’s Genevan Catechism covers the full scope of the Christian life. This modernized publication hopes to increase its popularity and usefulness.
"For some church traditions, old catechisms seem like relics from a bygone era. And yet, if we engage timeless catechisms like Calvin's, we see that chewing on and digesting rich theology is always nurturing to our souls. I'm thankful that Joshua Torrey took up the mantle to provide this beautiful resource to a new generation of Christians." — Brandon D. Smith, author of Rooted and Echoes of the Reformation
"I could not be more joyous that there is an effort in place to republish it, that it might find a wider audience. I fully intend to utilize the catechism in leading my son in the faith, as well as sharing much of its treasure with any who will listen." — Hans Saunders, Fellowship Bible NWA laymen
