John Calvin was one of the most famous preachers of the Reformation. In this episode, we discuss the side of him that is often not discussed as much: Calvin the Statesman. We also listen to the part that followed his sermon, "Passion of the Christ," from just before Easter last year. Special thanks to Chips Ross. Chips currently serves in Fresno, California as pastor of Westwood Baptist Church. As a child, he assumed he was a Christian because he answered the Bible questions correctly. But, God used a drama of DL Moody to make him realize that he did not know Jesus personally. Chips has an English degree from The Master’s College, and a Master of Divinity degree from The Master’s Seminary. He and his wife, Christchanna, have four school age children.

Check out our new show! Martyrs and Missionaries In this episode of Revived Thoughts we examine the relationship between William Wilberforce and John Newton. The way the two of them worked together to defeat slavery and the actual process that they worked through. In this sermon, "The Shaking of Heaven and Earth," one listens to a sermon that asks us to think about the God who shakes the Heavens and the Earth and how these are not just words on paper. This is what God will someday actually do. Special thanks to Tony for this week's episode.

Check out our new show! Martyrs and Missionaries D. L. Moody's famous Bible Institute had a commencement address from John Stam two years before he and his wife are martyred on the mission field. His incredible life will serve as a witness and a testimony to God's good work. This biography is part of a two parter with the other half of the story available on the first episode of Martyrs and Missionaries. Check it out here. In this sermon, "Commencement Address," you will hear the echoes of sermons by Hudson Taylor as he encourages his audience to be willing to go to the ends of the Earth for the Gospel. This address and desire to live and serve God is as timely today as it was then. Special thanks to Chips Ross for reading this week's sermon. Chips Ross was born and raised in California and got converted to Christ when he was ten at the re-enactment of a drama on DL Moody's life. I enrolled at the Master's College but after a semester in Israel he decided to become a pastor. He met his wife, Christchanna, and has since had four children together. They live in Fresno and he serves as the pastor of Westwood Baptist Church since September of 2015.  He also takes time out of his busy schedule to take nerdy, younger Christians under his wing to mentor them which is appreciated by them.
