This groundbreaking study offers a sweeping overview and reconsideration of John Calvin’s theology. In Calvin’s Ladder, Julie Canlis recovers some of the common (and neglected) themes that Calvin shared with the early Church Fathers. She shows that his works are soaked in a vibrant theology of “participation,” not unlike the Christian mystical tradition.
A work of both theology and spiritual formation, Calvin’s Ladder suggests a distinct new way of conceiving the relation between God and humanity—challenging not only old caricatures of Calvin but also our own self-portraits.
