Podcast Description

God does not demand perfect faith, zeal, or repentance before hearing our prayers. In these sections from John Calvin’s Institutes, we receive great comfort: even the prayers of the saints are imperfect—mixed with coldness, wandering thoughts, irregular emotions, and doubts—yet our heavenly Father indulges our weaknesses. Calvin shows why we must pray in the name of Christ our Advocate and Mediator, who alone makes our approach to the throne of grace possible and effective.

Readings:

John Calvin — Institutes of the Christian Religion, Book 3, Chapter 20, Sections 16-18
