Abstract
The paper argues that Calvin's reputation hides his work for the unity of the church. His mature ecclesiology was a thoughtful analysis of the catholicity of the church, and as an ecclesiastical statesman he sought to establish bonds of unity where he was able. His legacy could be of contemporary value in his Christocentrism, his lack of dogmatism about church order and his faithful tenacity.
