Add to ORKGIn this paper I compare and contrast asceticism as discipline in John Calvin\u27s Institutes of the Christian Religion with the early Christian\u27s notion of asceticism especially reflected in Evagrius Ponticus, John Cassian, and the Sayings of the Desert Fathers with particular attention to the eight thoughts. Then I suggest the practice of asceticism that Calvin would have considered appropriate as he described the Christian life. In the final section of the paper, I discuss several contemporary examples of spiritual practices offered in the Reformed tradition and note briefly how these compare with what Calvin suggests and with early Christian practices
