    About this audiobook

    “On the Christian Life” is an excerpt from John Calvin’s monumental work, Institutes of the Christian Religion. This section focuses on how being a Christian influences a person’s day-to-day life. Calvin describes how a Christian must deny himself daily in order to bear the cross of Christ and live out the duties of his faith. Christians are to live with an eye on the future, but Calvin also provides guidelines for how to enjoy the present comforts of life.

      I’m not sure what to say but I was expecting a professional version or at least rehearsed. It was hard to keep one’s train of thought while listening to mispronounced words or misread sentences causing
      me to loose my understanding of Calvin’s train of thought.
