Synopsis

Humble Calvinism is both a helpful summary of what Calvinism is, and a helpful challenge to those who are convinced Calvinists. It calls us to hold Calvinism in our hearts, not just in our heads, so that we are humble and gracious as well as zealous for the truth, to the praise and glory of Christ and his church.

Author Jeff Medders admits that he is quick to defend Calvinism, but often slow to humbly love Christians who take a different view. His warm-hearted, challenging (and surprisingly witty) book takes listeners through the the five points of Calvinism, revealing that a true understanding has a humbling effect on our hearts, fueling a love of Christ and his people that builds others up, rather than tearing them down.

Chapter 4 on unconditional election (“The Prequel to Your Faith”) is particularly beautiful. Grateful for this colloquial, convicting little book that packs a punch and makes much of Christ.......more

Goodreads review by Mr. Perry on September 12, 2022

Many people who become Calvinists tend to end up in what's called the cage stage - where they, in their eagerness to advocate for what they now believe is the truth about scripture...become utterly insufferable jerks (ironically completely contradicting the word of God they claim to believe in).
