Charles Lee Raynal. Presbyterian pastor and Davidson College religion professor. Long-time participant in the Davidson Colloquium and contributor to Calvin Studies II and IV.
Charles Raynal traces Calvin's teaching on eternal life as it entered the 1539 Institutes through the call to self-denial and cross-bearing, showing how Calvin held together the proximate use of earthly things and the ultimate hope of heaven.
Charles Raynal recounts the inauguration of the Geneva Academy on June 5, 1559, with Calvin presiding and Theodore Beza giving the founding address, and argues that the Academy stood as the crown of Calvin's Genevan work and the model for Protestant education across Europe.
