William Klempa. Principal emeritus of the Presbyterian College, Montreal and Reformed theologian. Contributor to Calvin Studies V on Calvin and natural law.
Klempa enters the long debate over natural law in Calvin, weighing the two main camps of twentieth-century scholarship and arguing for a measured reading that locates natural law within Calvin's social, ethical, and political thought.
Klempa traces Karl Barth's lifelong engagement with Calvin, beginning with his 1922 Gottingen lectures, and shows how Barth read Calvin as a churchly scholar whose dogmatic work served preaching and pastoral care.
Better Preaching, Better Teaching, Better Pastoral Care.
