Reformation 500
John Calvin is a giant in history whose ideas and influence spanned half a millennium and a handful of continents. He may be the most hated, the most loved, the most influential, and the most caricaturized man in 500 years of world history. No other person influenced the English puritans and separatists, the Scottish Presbyterians, the Dutch Reformed, the French Huguenots, and the American colonies as much as this man. He celebrates his 500th birthday this year, and Douglas Phillips from Vision Forum joins us on this edition of Generations to commemorate this significant event.
