Hidden in my Heart Roxanne Rogiers Simply Scripture Screen & Scripture Dave Allen I’m Dave Allen, and I’m excited to share two of my passions with you - movies and God’s word. In each episode, I’m going to discuss one of my favorite movies. I’ll look at why I find it compelling and why you should consider watching it. I’ll try to point out some of the technical aspects of the film making process to help you learn what to look for in other great films. I’ll also look at a topic that the movie dwells on and see what the Bible has to say about that. Scripture Texts with Expositions and Sentence-prayers from Calvin's Commentaries on the Minor Prophets by John Calvin (1509 - 1564) LibriVox The prayers of John Calvin, however, have received little attention, as compared with the fame which crowns his theological writings. His commentaries upon Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, and the minor prophets were originally delivered in the form of lectures, each followed by appropriate petitions.
