Calvin, Participation, and the Gift: The Activity of Believers in Union with Christ
by J. Todd Billings (Oxford U. Press, 2008)
This book explores John Calvin's theology of "participation in Christ." He argues that Calvin's theology of "participation" gives a positive place to the human, such that grace fulfills rather than destroys nature, affirming a differentiated union of God and humanity in creation and redemption. Calvin's trinitarian theology extends to his view of prayer, sacraments, the law, and the ecclesial and civil orders.
