John Calvin was born only a few years before the Christian church in Europe was plunged into the chaos of the Protestant Reformation. To Calvin, the only thing that mattered was correcting God's church, which he thought had wandered away from the truth. Throughout his adult life, Calvin manifested a singular passion with God. He desired intensely to subjugate the world to what he saw as God's truth, and his ideas started the movement now known as Calvinism. From Calvin's time, the movement has grown and spread throughout Europe and into North and South America, Africa, and Asia. Today 'New Calvinism' is a major branch of Protestantism.

In this Very Short Introduction Jon Balserak explores Calvin's life and considers the major ideas and issues associated with the Calvinist system of thought. He looks at how Calvinist ideas and practices spread and took root, helping shape societies today. Much of contemporary thought - especially western thought - on everything from civil government to money, suicide, and divorce has been influenced by Calvinism. Balserak also combats common misconceptions about Calvinism, and explores the relationship between Calvinism and the modern world.

Lovely!
I have been using this Kojic Acid and Papaya body lotion, and it is just a lovely lotion with a great scent. That papaya gives it such a sweet, tropical aroma that makes me feel like I’m on a bit of a vacation every time I put it on after my morning shower. It’s been very hydrating for my skin, and I’ve noticed it has a nice exfoliating quality that helps smooth out those rough patches, especially on my elbows and knees. It’s a real comfort to know that it’s vegan and paraben-free, so I don't have to worry about any harsh chemicals while I’m trying to take care of sun-damaged areas. The 8.45-ounce bottle is a perfect size for the vanity, and the lotion itself sinks right in without leaving me feeling greasy, which is a real plus when I’m trying to get dressed in a hurry.

Pros and cons at once
It smooths and brightens my skin, but it’s not very moisturizing, so I have to reapply it frequently. Expensive too
