THE POWER OF PRINT

An outlaw and exile from France, Calvin was invited to minister in Geneva where, for over a quarter of a century, he preached an average of five sermons a week, lectured to theological students, wrote commentaries on almost every book in the Bible, as well as numerous other theological books, producing a river of theological treatises and a massive amount of correspondence, which alone fills eleven volumes. John Calvin stands out as one of the most productive and hard working Reformers in history, he trained and sent out pastors, church planters and evangelists who established over two thousand Reformed congregations in France alone, just in his own lifetime.
