 Predestination to the Glory of God-Rev. Jim West
Calvin's doctrine of Predestination has been pilloried in many different ways: that it was a "terrible decree" that produced melancholy and terror, and even that Calvin repented for teaching Predestination on his death bed! Is there any truth to these perceptions? Or, did Calvin link Predestination to the glory of God's saving grace in Christ? Pastor Jim West will assess Calvin's true views in the light of the word of God.
Institutes of the Christian Religion: Their History and Impact-Rev. Reddit Andrews
"The Institutes of the Christian Religion", John Calvin's Magnum Opus is unquestionably one of the most important documents in the history of the world. If the writings of Luther played a pivotal role in launching the Protestant Reformation, "The Institutes of the Christian Religion" was crucial in channeling that passion and molding it into a coherent, transferable movement. Join Pastor Andrews as he examines The Institutes impact on the church and Western Civilization.
 Developing A Calvinistic Worldview-Rev. Wayne Leigh
Do you know what your worldview is? You have a worldview- the thoughts and presuppositions that underlie how you look at the world. Many people have hardly thought about this foundational aspect of the way they view reality. Listen to Rev. Wayne Leigh as he examines how Calvinism should impact everything you think, say, and do, and how we should live according to God's good pleasure, instead of living only for our own.

 John Calvin: The Measure of the Man-Dr. Frank Walker
Apart from the writers of Scripture, few men have had the degree of influence that John Calvin has had. In that sense, he towers above the world's greatest philosophers and the church's greatest theologians. It is, therefore, to be expected that we would note his strengths as we celebrate the 500th anniversary of his birth. Join with Pastor Walker as he discusses both the strengths and weaknesses of a man uniquely used by God to shape the church of the Reformation and Western Civilization.
