The Pope came out with an new “encyclical” lately. From what I understand, it is about 1,000 pages long, so please forgive me for not having read it. Rather, I am reacting to what has been reported about it. Supposedly, he addressed a number of issues, including the global economy…

Most of you probably did not know or notice that last Friday would have been the 500th birthday of John Calvin, had he still been alive. He is known for many things, but perhaps he known best as one of the great shapers of Reformed thought in Europe. Much of…
