Synopsis

The Classic Work on Christian Worldview—Now Affordable and Accessible

"There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry: 'Mine!'"

In 1898, Abraham Kuyper—theologian, journalist, and Prime Minister of the Netherlands—delivered six lectures at Princeton that would transform Christian thinking about faith and culture. In Lectures on Calvinism, Kuyper demonstrates that Calvinism isn't just theology—it's a comprehensive worldview addressing religion, politics, science, art, and the future of civilization.
