Preaching Like Calvin

Author: David W. Hall
Publisher: P & R PUBLISHING CO
Not only was John Calvin a magisterial theologian and one of the great transformative forces of modern history, he also was a consummate preacher who delivered over two thousand sermons in St. PierreÆs Cathedral in Geneva, Switzerland, where he pastored from 1536 until his death in 1564. What better way to celebrate the 500th anniversary of CalvinÆs birth and his towering legacy to the church than by gathering sixteen of the preeminent Reformed pastors of our day to preach commemorative sermons in St. PierreÆs! Preaching Like Calvin faithfully presents the text of these sermons. Reading the sermons shows how CalvinÆs theology grew from a clear understanding of the Bibleùan understanding and a theology that are alive and well in the church today.
