Taught by Dr. Carlton Wynne, this course aims to assist the church in reading and understanding the 1559 edition of the Reformer John Calvin’s magnum opus, the Institutes of the Christian Religion. Engaging Calvin’s Institutes entails not only exploring his theology but also fostering reverence and joy in union with Christ. Therefore, this course also seeks to facilitate the reader’s spiritual growth before God’s face. After surveying Calvin’s life and labor on the Institutes in their historical context, the course lectures trace the structure and content of Books 1 and 2 of the Institutes. Covered topics include the knowledge of God the Creator as revealed in nature and Scripture, the Trinity, creation, and providence (Book 1), as well as the knowledge of God the Redeemer in Christ, particularly in light of Adam’s fall into sin, the gospel and its law as revealed throughout the Old and New Testament ages, and the person and work of the Savior (Book 2).
Dr. Carlton Wynne is Associate Pastor of Westminster Presbyterian Church (PCA) and Adjunct Professor of Systematic Theology at Reformed Theological Seminary, Atlanta, Georgia.

Reformed Forum
Reformed Forum is an organization committed to providing Reformed Christian theological resources to pastors, scholars, and anyone who desires to grow in their understanding of Scripture and the theology that faithfully summarizes its teachings. Our mission is to support the Church in her charge of presenting every person mature in Christ (Col. 1:28). Reformed Forum began in January 2008 as a means of providing free access to informed theological conversation. Our cornerstone resource is our audio program, Christ the Center, which features weekly discussions on a host of biblical and theological subjects. We also host educational events, publish books, and engage in other activities that facilitate a lifetime education for God’s people.
