John Calvin: Crypto-Anglican?


Listen Later

John Calvin, father of Presbyterianism thought Anglicanism was a wishy-washy compromise, right? Wrong - dead wrong. This week, Rev. Steven Wedgeworth joins the hosts to discuss his recent writing on Calvin's surprisingly positive appraisal of the Church of England, and what contemporary Reformed Christians can learn from Calvin's approach. They also discuss Steven's own move into Anglicanism, and what ministry looks like in a Reformed Anglican church.
