About this listen

On this episode of the podcast, we talk with Dr. Ruben Rosario Rodriguez, about his new book Calvin for the World. Dr. Rosario makes what might be to some a surprising argument: that beyond the smaller circles where Calvin is revered, the real Calvin casts a capacious vision for our troubled times. Among the topics we discuss:

  • Dr. Rosario's story of his life with Calvin, and how Calvin made a difference growing up in Puerto Rico, studying in NY, pastoring in a rural community, and now teaching at a Jesuit University.
  • Assessing Calvin's legacy and responding to his detractors
  • "Liking" Calvin vs. respecting and appreciating Calvin
  • The parallels and divergences between Calvin and liberation theology
  • Calvin (and Calvinism) responding to the experience of exile and the phenomenon of refugees
  • Calvin's transnational ecclesiology and what we can learn from him today
