John Calvin 500 today

Today is the 500th birthday of John Calvin.
Few of us really know much about him but his influence and legacy is huge. It's rare for the works of someone from the 16th century to be still used and revered and consulted so much.

Check out this article by W.Robert Godfrey about why Calvin still matters. Also Michael Jensen recently had this article in the Australian highlighting some of the controversy and misconceptions surrounding Calvin.

If you want to read a bit more here is a transcript by John Piper on Calvin's ministry, example and legacy.
