About this sermon
In this episode, we continue the story of John Calvin’s later ministry in Geneva—his leadership, his controversies, and the weight he carried as both pastor and reformer. We look at his complicated role in the execution of Michael Servetus, the pressures and illnesses that marked his final years, and the enduring influence of his theology on Europe and beyond. From Geneva’s reforms to the spread of Calvinism through France, the Netherlands, and Scotland, this chapter shows how Calvin’s ideas shaped nations and movements long after his death.
