Riddle of Life

In the spirit of C. S. Lewis's Mere Christianity, eminent Calvinist thinker J. H. Bavinck's Riddle of Life offers a compact and compelling treatise on Christian belief, starting with the eternal questions that haunt every conscious human being: Why are we here? Where do we come from? What is our destiny? How should we live? He goes on to explore essential topics including sin, salvation, and Jesus the Redeemer; faith and idolatry; God's great plan for creation; and the ultimate purpose behind our lives. This lucid new translation of a classic text will make Bavinck's profound reflections on faith and the meaning of human life accessible to a new generation of seekers.
