A Must Read for Serious Calvinists

Every Christian family should read this book. He uses all of Calvin's writings to study each subject in the catechism or Institutes, making it all well understood - correctly! Too many critics are clueless when it comes to Calvin's teachings but have no problem criticizing him all the same. Wonderful book!!!
