Alexander J. McKelway. Professor of religion at Davidson College, host of the Calvin Studies Colloquium for many years. Contributor to Calvin Studies I and III.
Alexander McKelway argues that the genius of the Calvin Studies Society lies in joining church and academy, and he proposes three areas where both can learn from Calvin: the importance of good learning, the right relation of faith and knowledge, and the proper use of theological language.
Alexander J. McKelway opens the 1986 Calvin Colloquium at Davidson College by recalling the four-hundred-fiftieth anniversary of Calvin's arrival in Geneva, sketching the cold reception he met there and the modest reforms of 1537 that began his pastoral and disciplinary work.
Better Preaching, Better Teaching, Better Pastoral Care.
