SalWebRib - Excellent info on Zwingli and Calvin
This is an outstanding video for anyone who wants Reformation history to come alive. We used this in an adult Sunday School class and it worked great. The video does a great job of presenting a fair and personal approach to both characters. Instead of dry historical facts, Zwingli and Calvin are presented as flesh and blood men. You won't go wrong ordering and using this product.
S Lorraine - Well Done
Presented well. Very short which means you do not really get to know what each man's doctrines are. But for all its sparseness, it has the best information on Calvin and predestination and Servetus than many longer videos. The Reformation Overview package is worth getting, the short videos are on the longer video so you get two for one.
