5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful, readable, introduction to Kuyper's Calvinism, 10 Jul 1999
By A Customer
As a non-seminarian Calvinist, I originally approached this book with mixed emotions. On one hand, I knew absolutely nothing about Kuyper, other than he was considered a great theologian by other Christian writers whom I respected. On the other hand, personal experience has often proved that theological works are difficult and dry reading.

I was absolutely pleased with Heslam's book and now realize how fortunate I am to have found it as my initial introduction to this great Dutchman. First, it provided me with sufficient background on the man Kuyper before launching into an analysis of Kuyper's 1898 Stone lectures. Second, the author uses the Stone lectures to provide a general overview on the content and development of Kuyper's Calivinist theology. He does an excellent job of capturing the whole Kuyper--from his brillance to his bombast.

Despite the fact I have occassionally and informally been reading works on Calvinism for the last ten years, this book shed significant light for me on many issues that I had never before fully understood.

While the author stresses that Kuyper must be viewed within the times he lived in, I certainly saw the relevance of his teachings on Christian worldview for today. I highly recommend this book!
