Wealth, Materialism, and the Christian Life

Can a person be financially well-off and still be a faithful Christian? Or is material wealth intrinsically a hindrance to following Jesus Christ? Why or why not? Discuss these questions by bringing together your own perspective and John Calvin's commentary on Jesus's discussion with his disciples about wealth and the kingdom of Heaven () and Calvin's sermon on 1 Timothy 6: 17-19 (). Your 8 to 12-page essay should show close reading of these texts, including quotations and page references.

Research Paper Format Guidelines

Papers should be 8 to 12 pages long, typed double-spaced, and include page references to specific information from John Calvin's commentary and sermon.

Pages must be numbered. Papers must include a cover sheet with the following information:

  • Name
  • Address
  • Telephone number
  • Email address
  • High school and name of principal
  • High school address
  • Church and name of pastor
  • Church address
  • How you learned about the scholarship

No name or other identifying information should appear on any page except the cover sheet. The Meeter Center will assign each entry a code number and write it on the pages of the paper. This assures impartial judging of the papers by the Calvinism Committee and allows for accurate identification.

The Calvinism Committee will judge the papers by the following criteria:

  • Thoroughness of reading and articulating the main ideas of Calvin's own words.
  • Coherence and persuasiveness of the argument.
  • Quality of writing.
  • Relatedness to contemporary situation.

DEADLINE: Papers must be attached to an email to sam.ha@calvin.edu by February 3, 2025.聽

The Calvinism Committee will select winners by the end of March from applicants who will attend college or university in the fall of 2025. All participants will be notified of their status by mail.

Please feel free to contact us if you have questions.
