John Calvin the preacher

Calvin preached with only an open Greek or Hebrew Bible in front of him. No notes. No manuscript. He did this at the rate of 20 sermons a month. Astounding! Learn more about Calvin as servant of the Word of God on this week's Christ the Center podcast. I discovered this program a couple of months ago and have really enjoyed it. It's kind of like NPR for Reformed Presbyterian types (note the jazzy piano intro).

In all seriousness, speaking of preaching, if you think of it pray for me this Sunday as I'll be preaching at our 8:30 service. I most definitely will be using a manuscript.
