Description
Specifications

John Calvin was a transformative force for modern history, delivering thousands of sermons in Geneva's St. Pierre's Cathedral, where he pastored from 1536 until his death in 1564. What better way to celebrate the 500th anniversary of his birth than for many of today's preeminent Reformed pastors to preach in Calvin's home church? The sermons in Preaching Like Calvin show how Calvin's theology is alive and well in the church today.
